Postpartum self care routine

Hiya...congratulations on your new baby! I am 10 months PP and it did take a good few months for things to settle down. I don't know if you are BF or not but I stuck to more natural products and things that are gentle on your skin. I used Skinfood cleanser, exfoliator and moisturiser. They do a nice coconut oil you could use at night. For you hair you could try something simple like the Garnier Hair Food masks followed by a nice Argan oil or even doing some coconut oil masks. I also take Vitamin C, Iron and Magnesium. I'm sure things will be back to normal in no time.
Oh I like this thread!
I think the main thing with self care postpartum is food. Make sure you are eating enough and keeping your body fueled. There are a lot of things you can’t control in this time like sleep for example. But making sure you are fed means you can cope as much as possible. I found popcorn a good snack as well as carrots and hummus.
I hate when people say getting a shower is self care as it should just be a basic necessity but honestly sometimes it is self care. But if a shower is the way you can have self care make sure that you treat yourself to something nice while having that time to yourself (and your body to yourself). I bought myself a really nice Pure Fiji body scrub and it just made me feel like I was doing something nice when having a self care shower. If that isn’t in your budget at the moment, as I know babies can play havoc with budgets, then some sugar and coconut or olive oil could do the trick too. Or take some time to give your body a proper moisturise afterwards too.
Hope you are doing well!

Glad to hear your bub is doing well Lisa-Lou! Isn't it crazy how quickly they grow up. The saying "the days are long but the years are short" couldn't be more true.
We are doing well - battling some allergies - but otherwise I am a very lucky Mum with a very easy going baby (and I don't know where she got that from!)
