One of the first lessons you learn as a new mama? Don’t mess up the routine. Whether it’s a nap schedule or living your life around 3-hour breastfeeding increments , parents will go to great lengths to avoid unexpected changes for their little ones. But for many mothers, staying home to maintain a perfect schedule for their child isn’t realistic—or enjoyable. When my first daughter was born, I found staying home all day with a newborn to be incredibly isolating and lonely. The days we got out, whether to run errands or to spend an afternoon at a friend’s house or outdoors, were the days I felt healthiest mentally and emotionally. Fortunately, a compromise is possible. In the first year of my daughter’s life, I found ways to keep up our routine—no matter where our adventures took us. While we can’t go far right now, a road trip or a socially distant trip to Grandma’s house might be on your list.
