So I'm about to turn 29 and with 2 small children it's hard to attend to all my self care needs. Like, it's not uncommon for me to not eat all day because anytime I get a second someone needs something else. I'm trying to establish some kind of a routine, my "facewash" has been the sensitive baby soap. Could you do an updated video on how to squeeze self care in for busy mamas trying to do it all? My kids cannot be left unattended at all😳 Does microneedling over and extended period of time cause scar tissue?
I here you Sis💕 mommy of 2 boys and currently 5 months pregnant, selfcare seems unattainable but God currently shifted my mindset a couple months back and showed me if I can take care of my children, feed them well, meet their needs I need to see myself as worthy of receiving care for myself too. So for me I wake up between 5am to have some personal time to talk To God and journal and during that time I also include my face wash routine/toning/serums - honestly that takes me about 30min so I basically have 30 min of free time to myself before 6am that's when my house is active. Then during nap time for my toddler, while he is sleeping I go make something for myself for lunch/smoothie, I've learned that if I'm not feeling the greatest I should take that time and rest or if I do feel good and have strength/energy that's when I tend to clean my home. Lastly the only time I get me time again is after 9:30pm once the children are in bed, I tend to wash my face while I bathe so after I get out all I have to do is apply my serums and creams. But routines/discipline is crucial for maintaining selfcare. If you are starting out like myself use your phone and set an alarm as a reminder, that helped me❤
I know it's sooooo tough to care for yourself when you're a good mother but it's just as important. They need the best you. It just take more sacrifices like waking up earlier or sleeping much later. You certainly don't have to do the "works" but eating, sleeping and basic self care is needed. I know it's really hard. I will talk about this. I don't know the answer to the micro needling. I would need to do more research. I think a great hydra facial every couple months is probably all that's needed to fresh bright skin. Thank you for watching love 🩷
