O-mama - Opinionated Moms

A "tip from the top"! To all of you "new moms" who are soooo tired, can't sleep, can't even take a shower for goodness sake! Please, since when does a new baby get injured in a crib or playpen when they can't even turn over? Maybe baby would like to be left alone to explore his/her surroundings and just look around. Feel free to actually leave the room. If you're panicked...try a monitor. Gosh mom, don't you enjoy just being by yourself? Of course, you could also take advantage of "nap time" too-bathe, sleep, clean up the house, fix dinner or just check out O-MAMA! Basically, try to set up a schedule so your baby gets into a groove and knows what to expect. Life will be better for both of you! Enjoy!
