Chicken Soup for the Soul: New Moms: 101 Inspirational Stories of Joy, Love, and Wonder
By Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, and Susan Heim
416 Pages (Paperback)
Date Published: March 8, 2011
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Becoming a mom is the most amazing event. Chicken Soup for the Soul: New Moms will delight new and expectant moms with its heartwarming and humorous stories about raising babies and toddlers. This book is full of stories by other moms sharing the wonders of early motherhood, from waiting for the baby, to those early weeks and first few years, and everything in between!
MY THOUGHTS:
Even though I am not a first time mom, I liked this book. It is full of great stories about being pregnant, breastfeeding, sleep, doubts, adoption, infertility, toddler years and more! There really is at least one story that every mom can relate to. As I have two kids and am pregnant, I forgot things and feelings of having a new baby and I loved reading stories from other moms. Reading other mom’s stories just make me laugh, smile, feel like I’m not alone and hopefully learn from their strength. There are some sad stories, but they are real and show strength and courage that only a mother can have! This book would be great for new moms, a baby shower gift, or even a mom like me who already has kids!

MANDATORY ENTRY: Oh goodness, I SHOULD NOT be giving out advice to NEW MOM’s. SHOULD NOT!!!!!! I guess my advice would be…once a parent has given their child(ren) a bath, do not take them out the remainder of the day. This will minimize the chances of a child(ren) catching a cold. At least my mom-in-law lives by this philosophy. I don’t so much, but I do it to please her and keep her outta my hair. UGH!…That’s another blog post all together!

My tip is sleep when the baby sleeps, and don’t care about what your house looks like!
My new mom tip: Google! Many people will tell you to stay away from Google with your questions, but I’ve found that it’s helpful. Most of the time when I do a search for something related to my infant son, I find reliable answers, and I also learn that worries/concerns/paranoias are perfectly normal.

New mom tip: Don’t feel guilty about taking care of yourself, get rest, take breaks, and if friends offer to baby sit say YES! and get some time alone, it’ll be better for your baby if you are refreshed. joyedevive(at)gmail(dot)com

I don’t have a tip for a new mom since I just got pregnant. But I am enjoying reading all of these tips.
Take time for yourself–adult time–take a break!
