My life right now is like 75% baby, 24% DH and 1% me. I know the first two will start to balance out more as E gets a little older/needs me a little less, but I need to/have been making an effort to give more love to myself as well. I need to make sure that sometimes I'm not just Dave's wife and/or Evan's Mama, that sometimes I'm just Sarah.
Most days I carve out an hour or two after E's gone down for the night to lock the bathroom door and take a hot bath. I make sure there's a bottle in the fridge in case E wakes up hungry, so that DH can take care of it. It's the only time during the day I'm alone.
Anyway, today I treated myself to a few small things to make me feel less like just the mom of a baby. My current wardrobe consists of maternity jeans/maternity yoga pants/nursing tanks. So in order to feel like a human again, I bought a new pair of boots, non-maternity skinny jeans (first time I've worn something with a zipper and button in 9 months!) and a few BF-friendly shirts/sweaters (cowl and scoop neck). I feel so much more like my old self!
Do you make a point to have "you" time? Have you treated yourself lately?
