The birth of a child is a miracle that turns a woman's life upside down and leads her into the exciting and challenging role of mother. In the first weeks and months after the birth, you are not only busy getting to know your newborn, but also rediscovering yourself as a "newborn mommy". In this blog, we would like to give you valuable tips and inspiration to make the start of your new life easier.
1. The first few weeks: time to get used to things
The first few weeks after birth are a time of adjustment - for both you and your baby. It's completely normal to feel overwhelmed at times. The lack of sleep, the physical recovery after birth and getting to know your baby can be challenging. Take your time to get used to your new everyday life. Every day brings new experiences and insights.
Tip: Give yourself regular breaks and accept any help that is offered to you. Be it from family, friends or professional support – you don't have to do everything alone!
2. Trust in mother instincts
Every mother knows this: the desire to do everything right. But especially in the first few weeks, it is important to listen to your gut feeling. You and your baby will quickly develop a special bond and you will learn to recognize your child's needs. Trust that as a mother, you know intuitively what your baby needs.
Tip: Don't let well-intentioned advice unsettle you. Every mother-child relationship is unique, and what works for others may not necessarily work for you and your baby.
3. Care and well-being: The best for your baby
Proper care for your newborn is crucial to their well-being. Look for gentle, skin-friendly products that have been specially developed for sensitive baby skin. From choosing the right diapers to gentle cleansing to caring for sensitive baby skin - high-quality and natural products are the best choice.

4. Don't forget yourself: Self-care as a "newborn mommy"
In the midst of all the care for your baby, don't forget to take care of yourself too. Self-care is not a luxury, it's a necessity. It's important that you take time to recover, get enough sleep and find little breaks for yourself.
Tip: A relaxing bath, a short walk in the fresh air or just a cup of tea in peace - consciously allow yourself moments in which you can recharge your batteries. This will not only help you, but also your baby, as you will be able to be there for your child in a strengthened and balanced way.
5. Sharing ideas with other mothers: Working together through the challenges
As a "newborn mom," exchanging ideas with other mothers can be incredibly valuable. Whether in breastfeeding groups, mothers' cafés, or online - contact with women who are in a similar life situation can support, inspire, and encourage.
Tip: In our baby shop we regularly offer events and workshops for mothers where you can exchange ideas and get valuable tips. Come and visit us – we look forward to seeing you!

As a new mom, you face many new challenges, but never forget: you're doing great! Every day brings new experiences, and over time you'll become more and more confident in your role. Your baby not only gives you lots of love, but also the opportunity to grow and learn. Enjoy this special time, as challenging as it may be at times - it is unique and unforgettable.
