[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a difference between looking more presentable and basic hygiene. Make it a daily goal to get back to your previous hygiene habits- if you were a once a day person, plan time to get back to that.

PS it's ok for baby to cry for 10 minutes as you take a shower if you have the kind of baby that wants to be held all the time. Give yourself permission to just invigorate yourself with a shower and fresh change of clothes.

-been there done that and my DH is/was wonderful- I was just really tired/low energy and felt pressured to be 'on' 100% of the time for the baby. When I had extra time, I napped, instead of bathing. What got me was I didn't want each of my babies to 'know' mummy's smell was sweat, bo, dried milk and ass. [/quote]

I’m very biased but my baby is an angel. She’s a very easy and good baby. Sleeps by herself for the most part for naps. Hardly cries unless tired or hungry or for comfort. I try to take the nap time to rest because I’m feeding, making bottles, making food, changing diapers, and rocking to sleep during that time. It’s a never ending 2-3 hour loop.

The thing is I don’t actually smell. I even asked my husband and he said no. He would tell me. I’ve showered 4 times in the 2.5 weeks I’ve been home. In between that is wipes, a bidet, deodorant, teeth brushed and flossed twice a day, and hair brushed. I’ve never been one to smell much.

I’ve been battling lack of sleep when I was pregnant. I think I worked myself too hard. Working 50 hour weeks, caring for his mom, and doing most of the household chores took a toll once I became heavily pregnant.

I plan to start showing daily. Ordering more clothes or maybe asking my husband to be more diligent with doing laundry. I will not be dressing up in yoga pants or jeans until I’m ready.
