Yes, it sounds bad but sometimes you should take a break.\u00a0 I\u2019m all about self-care and when I\u2019m at the end of my rope and the exhaustion is starting to take over, I let the house get messy and the laundry pile up.\u00a0 It does a world of good for building up my energy reservoir.<\/li>\n<li><strong><u>Take a couple vacation days and stay home<\/u><\/strong> &#8211; I did this a lot when my son was an infant. I dropped him off at daycare and went back home to sleep and relax.\u00a0 It was awesome.\u00a0 It was a great way to rejuvenate and get my happiness back.\u00a0 I don\u2019t do it as much as I should now.\u00a0 I usually do a modified version which I use my vacation day to get my hair done at a salon or go shopping in peace.\u00a0 Either way, we all need a day to do whatever we want for a few hours without children around, it makes us better parents.<\/li>\n<li><strong><u>Give your kid the iPad or turn on a movie<\/u><\/strong> \u2013 Sometimes I\u2019m just tired.\u00a0 I\u2019ve had a horrible week at work or I\u2019m just irritated in general. It happens and I don\u2019t want to be frustrated with my son, because I\u2019m feeling moody so I find that getting him a new iPad\u00a0game\/app or letting him watch a movie is a great way for me to get an hour or so of much needed rest time.\u00a0 Typically, I will have good snacks around too so we can relax and eat for a bit.<\/li>\n<li><strong><u>Make the entire day a kid day<\/u><\/strong> &#8211; I do this one day\u00a0every weekend my son is with me.\u00a0 I make a whole day about him.\u00a0 We will go to the museum, to the park, and then out to eat or eat at home, making something together.\u00a0 This can be tiring on the physical end but it relieves a lot of stress for me mentally.\u00a0 Seeing my son enjoying himself and having a great day brings me an enormous amount of joy and happiness.\u00a0 Thus, a lot of life stress\u00a0issues can\u00a0easily be forgotten in those moments and it\u2019s absolutely amazing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I hope you are\u00a0reassured that you are not alone in this parental exhaustion struggle.\u00a0 All parents get tired and are tired.\u00a0 We are all\u00a0just pushing through, so don\u2019t feel bad about it.\u00a0 As parents, we just need some validation that we are not as bad as our parents \ud83d\ude09\u00a0and that we are not complete failures.\u00a0 So, I hope that you push through your exhaustion and figure out a way to manage it better.\u00a0 If you have some suggestions for coping with parental exhaustion, please leave them in the comments for this post.\u00a0 Thanks for reading!<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1080 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/mommabliss.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Tips-Parental-Exhaustion.gif\" alt=\"Tips for Parental Exhaustion\" width=\"304\" height=\"456\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Follow me on Instagram at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mommablissofficial\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mommablissofficial<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow me on Twitter at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/mommablissblog\">https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/mommablissblog<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow me on Facebook at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mommablissofficial\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mommablissofficial<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Copyright @ www.mommabliss.com 2017<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I\u2019m completely exhausted as I write this post. \u00a0It\u2019s sort of therapeutic to write while your brain is on empty. \u00a0I spent the morning at a matinee watching the movie &#8220;Despicable Me 3,&#8221; then went to\u00a0the playground, followed by swim lessons, and then I took a trip to my favorite bakery\/caf\u00e9 to buy dinner&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1078,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[61,81,94,95,80,86],"class_list":["post-1068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-momma-life","tag-kids","tag-moms","tag-parent-exhaustion","tag-parental-exhaustion","tag-parenting","tag-single-moms"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 -
