Mumma, Stop Stressing! I Am Just A Baby!-A short guide to New Parenting

Motherhood

As parents we worry about even if our kids sneeze. I, myself, as a mother start thinking, oh, now he will get a cold, bad throat and eventually run a fever. What if it is a viral infection? That means he will have to miss a few days of school, that would mean a pile up of homework and more stress for the child. What if it is something serious, I will have to take him to a doctor. What will he do? He can’t even get a test done to give the correct diagnosis, till four to five days have passed for the infection to surface. And oh God! I will have to feed him so many medicines.
 
We worry endlessly! And we have programmed ourselves to imagine the entire chain of reaction, even before an event actually occurs.
 
New parenting is the stage where parents stress even if the child is sleeping, pooping, feeding. They receive innumerable advice from parents, friends, doctors, and every person thinks he or she is  an expert on raising kids. This leaves them more and more confused.
When your kid becomes a toddler, and he or she  is more independent and you think you can relax a bit . Then start the temper tantrums, the terrible twos, kids not eating food that they used to like, all but leave the parents baffled. 
 
 
We have read all about what to expect before we become parents, but what some of us fail to imagine is what will happen after you become one. Though there is no end to such queries, let’s handle a few important ones here.
One very important aspect in case of  infants is, not to miss their vaccinations. Attatching a vaccination chart  for your reference so that keeping track becomes easier for you.
Is diapering an unsolved mystery for you?Click here to know all on diapering.
 
As I always say that there is no guidebook to parenting. There is no right or wrong. It is something you learn on the job and for every parent and kid, the algorithm is different. So don’t pass judgement on yourself or other parents. As you will realise that parenting is the easiest thing to have an opinion on but the hardest thing to do.

    Whatever a Mother decides and does to her child ultimately has its own good to the child in matters where a few varied options happened to be in front…. A Nice Post!

    As a nanny for small children, I can definitely identify with all of those worries. Who know how much more stressful it must be for actual parents. Some great tips and advice here.

    New mom here also. I know about worrying too much. I guess that is just how it is to be parents, we can’t help ourselves… There is definitely no perfect parenting guidebook but we just navigate through parenthood the best we can and all with unconditional love & patience

    Haha. Guilty of being like this with my first child. But come my second and third it became better since my husband and I weren’t clueless anymore. Talking to other parents and doing a lot of research helped us get through the new parent rollercoaster ride! Thanks for this!

    Being a mother is the hardest job I know. Mother knows best and their love and care is priceless. We should appreciate everything they are doing while they are alive.

    Great tips you got there!
    Thanks for sharing 🙂

    Motherhood is something you learn over the years and with every kid you become a supermom.

    Somehow, your guide makes me realise the difficulty of parenting, and although I’m not attached nor married nor with a kid yet, I can’t help but become super worried…

    I guess parenting is a skill developed through time. It’s important to be able to adopt to situations as parents.

    I agree that there is no guide book for parenting, all are personal experiences. This is where you can say if you are a good parent or you need helping hands just to help and guide you through out.

    There should be Parenting Class in college! But still you cannot really predict what kind of children you will have. As parents, we have to be ready to make decisions as the situation calls for it.

    So true! You know what? The worrying follows our kids into adulthood. Once a parent, always a doting parent. 🙂

    All great tips especially the list of medical specialists for your child/children. It’s also best to put emergency numbers on the fridge, for ex. Poison Control, 911, or whatever is the equivalent in your country.

    Yes I used to panic about everything!
    My short list of mommy tips:
    – Relax you will be a great mom, just find your own mommy methods and be comfortable
    – Get an amber teething necklace, they work wonders
    – Sleep whenever and wherever you can, you will never sleep again
    – Keep emergency numbers on your phone
    – Stop worrying about everything, things will be all right
    – Find a good online baby store and get your things delivered, much easier than dragging your baby out, especially when it is cold!
    – When help is offered take it!
    – The dishes can wait, enjoy your baby and only do the important things that need to be done
    – Remember the baby years fly past, try and enjoy every moment and not wish the time away
