Big Day in surgery means big naps on Mama 🥰

2025/1/7 Edited to

... Read moreSurgery days can be emotionally and physically taxing for both patients and their loved ones. Ensuring a supportive environment is crucial during recovery. Napping not only provides much-needed rest but also promotes healing. Engage in comforting activities, such as reading, watching beloved shows, or simple conversations to help ease anxiety. It's essential to prioritize self-care and companionship. A comfortable space can greatly aid relaxation. Incorporating soft lighting, calming scents, and cozy blankets are small yet impactful ways to enhance the recovery experience. Generating a calm atmosphere also encourages better sleep quality. Moreover, consider preparing nourishing meals or snacks in advance. Adequate nutrition supports healing and provides the energy required for recovery. It's beneficial to involve family and friends during this time, lacking emotional and physical support can increase stress levels for both caregivers and patients. Remember, every small act of kindness contributes to a more positive experience during such significant moments.

how to ✨actually feel recharged✨ (without naps)
feeling energized isn’t always about having enough sleep, but about having enough *rest* (which isn’t the same thing!) you can feel recharged all the time if you keep up with the different types of rest your body, heart, and soul need 💗 💌 save for later! & follow for more daily posts :)

The image features the title "Newborn naps 101" in large blue and black text, overlaid on a blurred background of a baby sleeping peacefully. The Lemon8 logo and creator handle are at the bottom.
This image displays a chart of newborn wake windows: 1 month (30-60 min), 2 months (45-75 min), 3 months (60-90 min), and 4 months (75-120 min). It emphasizes that every baby is different and to follow wake windows, not strict schedules.
The image explains that "Routines are a Game changer," differentiating routines (specific order, not clock-dictated) from schedules (clock-bound). It highlights routines as social cues that teach babies sleep is coming, requiring consistent development.

A person sleeps on a couch with an orange cat resting on their arm. The text overlay asks, 'ARE NAPS REFRESHING OR DRAINING?' The image highlights the central question about the effects of napping.
A smiling woman in a green robe and glasses holds an umbrella at night. Speech bubbles convey her experience: 'I've never been a nap person... If I nap, I wake up more cranky than before.'
A man with a bun lounges on a couch, petting a calico cat. Speech bubbles state, 'Meanwhile my boyfriend is a new person after a nap. It's so wild how naps affect people differently. Are you team nap or team push-through?'
- Do Naps make you Cranky? 😴🤔
I’ve never been someone who can nap. Even when I’m exhausted, I usually push through because if I do nap, I wake up in the worst mood. It’s almost like it makes me more tired instead of fixing it.😐 My boyfriend is the complete opposite. If he takes a nap, he wakes up like a brand-new per

A baby sleeps peacefully in a crib, wearing a light-colored sleeper with gold hearts. The crib has a pink and white patterned sheet. Overlay text reads: "(Hot Take) Why We Didn't Do Contact Naps With Our Baby."
We Don’t Do Contact Naps and That’s Okay 👌🏽
We don’t do contact naps with our child. ✨ Not because I don’t love the snuggles, but because my baby sleeps better in their own space—and so do I. 💤 Contact naps work for some families, but they don’t work for ours. And that doesn’t make me less of a loving mom. It makes me a mom who knows w

A fluffy bumblebee is nestled deep within the vibrant orange and red petals of a flower, appearing to be resting or napping. Its black body and fuzzy yellow/white fur are visible, with its wings folded on its back, surrounded by the colorful bloom.
Bee naps ❤️🌻
Just the sweetest bee taking a nap in my flowers today. They work so hard they deserve every minute of it ❤️ I think if we can take a lesson from nature here we could see that we all deserve to rest at our own convenience. No matter how much work is left to do or how much you’ve done, you rest

Life Savers for Baby Naps
Ohhh sleep…my favorite activity to do since having babies. Miss you girl, I’ll see you again some day soon 😂 Getting out of the newborn sleeping phase was so relieving. I did get some of my energy back which allowed me to do more chores and other household things I had been falling behind on.

Contact naps aren’t wasted time...
One of the BEST parts of owning my own business? Contact naps. 💤👶 While my little one snuggles into me, I get to run my business right from home. And honestly… this is exactly what I’ve always wanted. To be present. To be here. This business is more than just extra income, it’s about freedom.
