    TL/DR: great vid, thought I’d share my notes with mom’s who are running on empty.
    1. Brain dump: Write every you have to do on a daily and weekly basis - get it out of your head and on to paper/doc. Be thorough (work and home)
    2. Delegate and delete. Hand off to someone else family/friend or hire. Be ruthless - is it necessary? Delete it.
    3. Assign tasks- Day + Time. Decide what can be done on each day. Then assign tasks for each day. Be realistic and schedule like tasks together (computer tasks, repetitive tasks, pre-work, laundry days)
    3A. Post it: place it somewhere you will see it everyday
    3B. Monitor and Be Kind: Don’t stress if it doesn’t get done but if you see that you are not doing certain things repeatedly, then time to evaluate the list and make updates.
    4. Wear your baby (Sally wrap). Nap in the wrap and get stuff done. Awake, play, eat all the things. But signs of sleep go in the wrap.
    5. Get ready everyday. Define what “put together” means for you, i.e. makeup. Get dressed outside of lounge wear bc your brain will be in lounge mode. Boost your mode (oil diffuser)

    I have 4 kids and we have had the same cleaning/laundry routine for the last 6 years. We are able to keep up with the house and always get questions on how we keep our house clean we focus our chores from Monday through Thursday so we have the weekends off 😊

    I love this video and your energy! I am a mom of two (hoping for a third) and we homeschool. I recently created a monthly housecleaning list and weekly homeschool list. The reason for the monthly cleaning list is because it helps me to keep up with those random chores that come infrequently. For example, I clean bathrooms every Thursday but the shower only once a month. So I basically have one "extra" chore per day to keep up with a clean house. It makes me feel less overwhelmed and also helps me to overlook dirty things, knowing they will be cleaned soon enough.

    I am currently 10 weeks pregnant with our third kid and it was a complete, beautiful, but complete surprise! I am struggling with feeling sooo tired, nauseous 24/7, brain empty, not wanting to do anything… my second is 18 months and my oldest 3 and a half so it’s okay I don’t have “babies” and the age gap will be fine but I was SO looking forward becoming myself again now that my second is older… I feel like I have completely forgotten my year goals and my motivation and arf… im struggling and at the same time feeling SO guilty for feeling like this… sorry if you are reading this… I just needed to send a message in a bottle and through it somewhere hahaha ❤

      It's not easy! All we can do is take it one day at a time, even if that is one of the hardest things sometimes. I empathize with the need to become yourself again. Whenever I find myself at a point I don't want to be or just an unplanned situation, I try to imagine myself looking back on this moment five years from now. Hold tight! ❤

    I used to be extremely routined, even after having one child. But baby #2 completely threw me off😂. I’ve had 2 miscarriages since and am kind of accepting that my baby years may be over. Now that my second child is almost 3, I’ve started to get back into my routines again with laundry and cleaning and it’s been so much better for our home and my work load.

  • @Sydguevara

    You would love notion. Iven been doing this for a year through notion. Its so relaxing not being responsible to remember all this life, personal, family, errands, house, tasks to do and just brain dump it all in one place. What's fantastic about notion is that you can create data bases and customize it to dates, priorities, events, tasks, ideas, projects and you can design it to sort it in its category. I also like to sort my tasks by energy level, if it takes me less then 2 min then i tackle it right there. and that empties so much brain space alone.

    • @benitababy7654
      @benitababy7654 4 месяца назад

      Amazing! Do you have a notion template that you recommend/share that encompasses all of what you described? I’m new to notion and a new mom so I figured this would be really helpful to get organized.

Some days I just want to sleep!!! Even the little things tire me out. Thanks for this video...

      I have a 4 mo and agree it gets easier soon. I got a 4Moms swing used on FB Marketplace so I can put her in there in a pinch if I need to shower or eat and she won’t stop crying. It’s not so good for her head development so I also practiced putting her on the play mat for gradually more time and only use swing as last resort.
