If the following words sound familiar it's because they are repeated by flight attendants each time they give out the safety advice regarding oxygen masks.

Mothers, attend to your own needs before attending to the needs of your child.

What use indeed is a parent who has passed out due to lack of oxygen while their child is breathing comfortably and waiting for the parent to come round?

Use these words as your mantra, reciting them often to remind yourself to take loving care of your own needs.


Take care of your own basic needs
  • Eat good, nutritious food 
  • Aim to sleep when your baby is sleeping
  • Remember to drink plenty of water
  • Try to have fresh air and a daily walk for exercise
  • Allow your feelings and release them
  • Focus on positivity and love
  • For now, give up caretaking others and become your own best caretaker.
