now that i'm the momma of a 1 year old, i like to reflect over the past year- what worked and what didn't.
honestly the best advice i ever read, go with your instincts.
seriously.
there is so much out there. advice on how to nurse, what kind of diapers to buy, and how to burp you baby. it is overwhelming when you're trying to recall it in your sleep-deprived state with a seemingly frail newborn in your arms. so just go with your gut. if your baby is fed, warm, and safe- your doing well[the same goes for you- mama's gotta eat too!].
i'm not saying don't educate yourself beforehand, but you also have to be gentle on yourself.
and remember, that sweet snuggley baby is growing so fast, so put aside the to-do list and cuddle.
