Many girls, with the appearance of a baby in the house, understand that they are sorely lacking time for everyday affairs. To optimize your time, you need to make a daily plan.
But this does not mean that if, according to the schedule you have drawn up, at 14.00 it is the time of feeding the child, and he is asleep, then you will have to wake him up. No! First of all, you need to follow the baby and adjust all your affairs to his schedule. You need to identify the main points of your child's schedule. This is sleeping, feeding and walking in the fresh air.
Having understood at what time the child usually sleeps, and at what time he is awake, it is necessary to divide matters into main and secondary ones. And also on those that can be done in the presence of the baby and for which time is needed when he sleeps. For example, during a child's sleep, you can prepare to eat or wash the floors, and when he woke up, throw the laundry, or, conversely, take out and hang up the already washed clothes.
Try to wash the dishes as they get dirty, rather than waiting for a whole mountain of dirty dishes and mugs to grow. After all, it is easier to take 2 minutes at once than not to leave the sink for half an hour. It is also necessary to actively and variedly spend time with the child. Talk more, communicate, play educational games.
And the last point - don't forget about yourself. After all, if a young mother is all the time busy with the child and the household, and there is no time to rest, it is not far from a nervous breakdown. If mommy did not get enough sleep, then it is not necessary to run on some business during the daytime sleep of the child. You still can't do all the housework. Better to lie down and take a nap for an hour or two, while the house is quiet and calm.
Also, attracting helpers will help save you time and effort. Ask the grandmother to take the child for a walk, and in the meantime, you can clean up the apartment or cook dinner. Or on his day off, the husband can be a great helper.
Make your own personal plan and try to follow it, and then you will definitely have an extra minute even to read your favorite book.
