When in doubt...

This morning I'm thinking about all the new babies in our community in the past couple weeks AND all the ones just around the corner. Today I want to say to all the mamas of new babies, "When in doubt, take a nap."

It is really true, so many things will go better if you grab those naps when you can. NO GUILT ALLOWED.

If you have a toddler too, this is sometimes so hard. They both get to sleep at once and there are a million things you feel like you should do. Don't do them. Sleep.

I promise you--for the first three months at least--you will not regret it. Your husband will thank you. Your body will thank you. Your milk production will be better. Your joy will be better. I could go on and on.

With love and wishing you happy napping,
Carrie
