Being an entrepreneur

If you really get stressed about how to deal with the growing economy and the fact that you are a new stay at home mother, there are a lots of work that you can be doing from home. That would definitely help you kill some time as well as help you build a stable income. There are options like typing job, or online classes, or selling products online the list is endless. So one juts need to choose their area of interest and the sky id their limit.

Making a journal

The most relaxing spare time work that I always love to do is update on my scrap book. I know making an album or storing all the baby photos on Google keeps them forever, but nothing beats a cute little scrap book made for your little one to be given on their birthday when they grow. It can contain the impressions of their little hand and feet, the tab that you had on your hand when you were at the hospital, the first baby picture, the alphabet they wrote, etc, as interesting as it sounds, it will give you a lot of joy when you start doing it.

Stay at home can be made lot of fun,

Lot of things to do lots to get done,

So put on your saddle and get ready for the ride,

Keep all your anxiety and boredom aside.!!!!

I am a mother of a beautiful baby girl. She is the most precious thing to have happened to me. Motherhood in the eyes of a medical professional is completely different. Very often I find myself in a dilemma when she is sick I become frozen and panicked. As a first time mother it is sometimes overwhelming and full of surprises. Yes being in medical professional helps me tackle a few things here and there but what I have learnt through the journey so far is it’s okay to not know or being not able to decide for yourself. It’s okay if you seek somebody’s help. It doesn’t mean that you are weak or don’t have enough knowledge it just means you are new at this and trying to do your best. It takes great courage to accept your short comings and learn about it in the process. As a mother and as a medical professional I have just one advice and tip to all the parents out there do not ever try and compare your little one to other children. Every child is unique and is a blessing enjoy their childhood and let them be.
