The ‘Baby blues’ also known as ‘Post natal depression’, can affect a lot of women. When I have given birth, I was one of these woman, I was so emotional, stressed and anxious from going through a long delivery. I had mood swing and I could not sleep for days, because I was worried about how to do the right things for my newborn baby, worried about why my baby was crying and what that meant. I also wanted to learn all the tips from the professionals, the meanings of all the gesture and sounds that my child makes, and how to be a good mother. Things like how I would fed my baby, whether to breast feed or bottle feed, how to change a nappy, and how to respond to my baby’s needs, as well as trusting my maternel instinct.

      And this is completely normal…

 

How can we mothers take care of ourselves also?

I would like to share a fresh smoothy making tip that is a ‘sweet’ part of my journey to have a healthy diet, fight against stress, and improve my concentration, which I hope will give an extra boost to your daily energy in your life as and when you need it (As it does for me in my life).
