Find me over at Mama and Baby Love today sharing what I’ve learned about staying refreshed while mothering little ones…

“When I had my first baby, I was so focused on the pregnancy and preparing myself for a natural birth that I didn’t do a lot of mental preparation for motherhood. And I soon discovered that motherhood is hard. For me, one of the most difficult transitions was getting used to the idea that I was not in control – particularly regarding my time. Suddenly, there’s a tiny, adorable human tyrant deciding when you can and can’t sleep and whether you’ll actually get that shower you’ve desperately needed for the past 72 hours…” (Read the rest at Mama and Baby Love.)
