Who Am I? Remembering Your True Identity as You Adjust to a New Role as Mom

How do you introduce yourself? Daughter? Sister? Friend? Athlete? Musician? Student? Co-Worker? Girlfriend? Wife? There’s nothing wrong with any of these labels, and most of us are comfortable using many of these identifiers at the same time. But when we add “Mom” to that list, the waters get muddied. We’re excited to become moms… until we try to figure out what it means for us as individuals.

Working mom. Stay-at-home mom. Single mom. These labels somehow seem more intense. If I’m a working mom, how do I make time for my kids? If I’m a stay-at-home mom, will I miss being in an office and spending time with co-workers? If I’m a single mom, how do I figure out how to pull it all together? Especially when children are young, many moms wonder when they’ll have time to shower much less keep up with their “previous” lives. But as women, we often want to be all things to all people all the time. We stress ourselves out trying to have and do it all.

If that’s you, then keep reading because we have the down and dirty comparisons to help you decide the best option for your family based on your lifestyle and budget.

When it comes to keeping your baby clean and dry, you have more options than you may think. Disposable diapers are convenient, but they can be expensive and harmful to the environment.
