Revitalising Tips for New Moms:
5 Strategies to Conquer Exhaustion

Are those leisurely Saturday lie-ins now a distant memory, leaving you feeling perpetually jetlagged? It's entirely normal for new moms to experience exhaustion, but fear not—there are effective ways to navigate through this challenging phase.


Life as a new mom is undeniably tiring, whether you're lugging around a baby bump 24/7 or responding to your tot's nightly demands. However, feeling fatigued doesn't have to cast a shadow over your day. Discover these revitalizing tips to boost your energy levels and reclaim a sense of vitality.


1. Embrace the Cold Shower Challenge

Researchers have found that a three-minute cold shower can counteract some effects of chronic fatigue and wake up your muscles. If time is scarce or the idea is daunting, a splash of cold water on your face can provide a quick pick-me-up.

Interesting Fact: Cold showers have been linked to improved circulation, enhanced immune function, and increased alertness.

2. Rise and Shine, No Snooze Allowed

While hitting the snooze button may seem tempting for a few extra minutes of precious sleep, sleep expert Dr. Neil Stanley cautions against it. Falling back into a deep sleep from snoozing can be a shock to your system, setting the wrong tone for the day. Embrace the morning without delay for a more invigorating start.

Interesting Fact: Did you know that the average person spends about six years of their life dreaming?

4. Complex Carbs for Sustained Energy

Say goodbye to diet restrictions and opt for wholemeal pasta or a handful of nuts. Complex carbohydrates take longer to break down, providing sustained energy and keeping you fuller for an extended period. The influx of glucose also nourishes your brain, promoting a more energised and focused state.

Interesting Fact: The brain, weighing about 2% of total body weight, consumes roughly 20% of the body's energy.

5. Stroll for Energy

While hitting the gym may not be feasible with a newborn, a brief walk to the park can do wonders for your energy levels. Research in the Personality and Social Psychology journal reveals that a mere 10-minute walk can leave you feeling energizsd for at least two hours. Take your baby for a daily stroll, benefiting both of you.

Interesting Fact: Walking is a natural energizer; it increases oxygen flow and releases endorphins, enhancing your mood.
