Seeking advice on wintertime postpartum activities
Can all the mamas who have gone through postpartum in the winter chime in with their best advice to fight off the winter blues?
I live in PA where winters are long and rough. I actually enjoy them, but that's by still being active outside- skiing, snow shoeing, etc. Baby #2 is due mid November and I'm anxious to be cooped up inside all winter without those outlets.
Baby #1 was born in June. We went for so many nature walks, it was great. But I don't feel the same comfort level doing that in winter due to ice, less people around in case I get stuck and the general mental hurdle of getting us all geared up in winter clothes.
What saves you in postpartum winter months?
