Being a mother is not a one-stop destination. but it's a journey. We learn to explore many things with our experiences. There are a few things that you must ignore for becoming a happier mom. Here I'm with a few suggestions which can help you in being happy.
5 Things You Need to Stop to Be a Happy Mom
1. Stop doubting yourself
We all understand that you’re new to your motherhood journey. But trust the journey of motherhood. Have faith in god. God has already given you the power to be a supermom and raise a super kid. You just need to wear the crown and walk like a queen. A mother puts in all the effort while raising her kids, and that's appreciated.
2. Stop comparison
Each child is unique and has a set of qualities. So, isn’t the mother? A mother also has her style of raising her kids. We’ll be talking about different styles of parenting in the upcoming chapters. No one knows better than a mother how to deal with her kids, what do they want, etc.
3. Let it go
People will always make a statement whether you’re doing your best. They always have something to say. A few people don't want to see you and your kid growing, they feel jealous. But let this not affect your inner voice of a mother. It all depends on you how you respond to it. You can always take suggestions from others, but your heart knows the best for your child. Do you agree? You can practice meditation to learn the art of letting it go. It’ll make you feel calm and more confident. Let your child also know their mother is the strongest.
4. Stop feeling lonely
A mother becomes over-possessive when it is about her kids. But don’t let this make you feel arrogant or misunderstood by others. Don’t be restricted to the home, kids, and household responsibilities. Starting socializing with other mothers is a great way to learn from each other’s experiences.
5. Stop worrying and start living
One understands that it’s your life. It might be a long time that you might miss your ‘old self’, the dress up, the happy you, and the confidence you, etc, but now stop pleasing others. You need to set “me-time” and do what you love the most. You need to set your priorities, but the first priority is you. Make a list of the things you always wanted to do. Set up your day well to keep things organized.
So, Mumma!
What’re you waiting for?
Don’t Stop loving yourself.
Do what makes you “to be a Happy Mom”.
