Mom guilt is a common feeling experienced by many mothers. It can arise for various reasons, such as feeling like you're not doing enough for your child or feeling like you're not giving them enough attention. Here are some tips that can help you overcome mom guilt:
- Talk about roles, responsibilities, and expectations with your partner from the start (pregnancy).
- Recognize that it's normal: It's important to realize that mom guilt is a normal feeling that many mothers experience. You're not alone in this, and it's okay to feel this way.
- Be kind to yourself: Don't be too hard on yourself. Remember that you're doing your best, and that's all that matters. Give yourself credit for the things you are doing right.
- Prioritize self-care: Taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of your child. Make sure to take some time for yourself each day, whether it's to exercise, read a book, or take a relaxing bath.
- Talk to other moms: Talking to other moms who are going through similar experiences can help you feel less alone. You can also get some helpful tips and advice from other moms. (Join us inside Calm Mama Society!)
- Focus on the positives: Instead of dwelling on the things you're not doing, focus on what you are doing. Make a list of your accomplishments, big or small, and remind yourself of them when you're feeling down.
- Be present at the moment: When you're with your child, try to be fully present at the moment. Put away your phone and other distractions and focus on enjoying your time with your child.
Remember that being a mom is challenging, and it's okay to feel overwhelmed sometimes. By caring for yourself and focusing on the positives, you can overcome mom guilt and enjoy your time with your child.
