I guess this happens to a lot of new moms; that feeling of wanting to spend more time with your little one, but having the obligation of a full time job. How do you divide yourself among all your responsibilities? How do you manage your time and let go of stress once you get home to be able to dedicate yourself entirely to your baby?
I don't have the answer to that question. Actually, I'm still in the process of exploring and getting used to this new life as a mom and full time working professional.
The guilty feeling is slipping away little by little, but sometimes I find myself beating myself up for having to spend time away from my kid.
How do you make the best of the time you have with your baby? I try to come home, take off my work clothes and slip into some comfortable exercise clothes so I can go on a walk with Alessandro. This is a great therapy for me because it helps me relieve stress and at the same time lets me enjoy some alone time with my baby. I also get in that much needed workout that I have no time for in the mornings.
Other activities I enjoy doing with Ale: reading to him, playing with his toys, taking him to the park, or just watching TV together.
Tell me what you are doing to enjoy your precious time with your kid!
