My morning routine as a new mommy

It’s safe to say that over the past few months my routine has definitely changed, (thankyou motherhood). I had a pretty chill routine during the week on days I wasn’t at university up until the last few months; I was quite far along in my pregnancy and in my final year so lots to do on those busy days.

So here is my updated morning routine.

  • The day starts at 6:45am after a night of getting up every few hours for baby. Drink a glass of water, take my vitamins, use the bathroom then tend to baby.

 

  • Change and feed the baby (Hope to goddess there isn’t a poopslosion to deal with) then get him dressed.

 

  • Then it’s time for cuddles on the sofa for an hour or so. I love this he’s always so giggling and cuddly on a morning so it’s great after a long night.

 

  • Then playtime – we practice rolling, crawling, sitting up. We read books, sing, dance, play with toys the works. We do this for about an hour or so this usually tuckers the Bug out.

 

  • Then it’s nap time. Whilst baby naps this mummy gets to drink coffee, snack/have breakfast and check her social media. And make herself feel somewhat human.

 

 

And there you have it my updated morning routine. It sounds pretty chill but with a baby, it’s changed dramatically and I’m usually exhausted by the time baby goes down for his morning nap, but honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way.

So how about you guys? What’s your morning routine like and is it different to last year? Let’s talk about it in the comments below.

    This time last year my morning routine consisted of staying in bed late (mainly because of pregnancy backaches, sleepless nights & feeling like a whale I wasn’t able to get up haha) . Now we’re up at 8, had breakfast by 9 and headed out by 10. Then it’s nap time & the morning is over.

    My morning routine has changed a ton since I started working from home. I used to have to be out the door by 7:30am and now I typically work in my pj’s for an hour or so before fully getting ready for the day. Seems luxurious (and trust me, I LOVE comfy clothes lol) but some days it feels like I start working the moment I open my eyes and check my phone.

    I haven’t been through the mommy phase yet, but I do start off my morning with a glass of water! So good for you! And I love you spend your morning pouring into your baby. That will pay off in dividends as he grows!

    I’m not a mother yet. So, my routine is pretty chill in the morning. During the winter time I have all time in the world, during the summer time the routine is quite different because my profession is a bit hectic and dynamic. I bet that will all change once, when the baby comes 🙂
