10 Essential Tips for New Moms: How to Pretend You Have it All Together While Hiding in the Laundry Room

Like a rollercoaster ride through the world's most chaotic amusement park, you're strapped in for the final trimester of pregnancy. Now, this is where the real magic happens—or, let's be honest, it feels more like a magic trick where everyone expects you to pull a rabbit out of a hat, and you're still trying to figure out how to get the rabbit in the hat in the first place. No pressure, right?

The Top Tip Involves Chocolate and a Wi-Fi Signal!

Here we are, about to share 10 essential tips for new moms during the third trimester, or as I like to call it, the "How I'm Going to Pull This Off?" phase. Go grab a smoothie, maybe some chocolate, and find a cozy spot—because hiding in the laundry room is optional, but recommended!

1. Your Baby Bump is Your Power

Who knew a baby bump could serve as both a conversation starter and a table for snacks? Communicate your due date like a warrior queen with a crown. Own your bump; it's the ultimate multitasking accessory. Don't underestimate the power it has to evoke sympathy, acquire seats, and win free desserts.

Remember: Behind every pregnant

bump is a hormonal woman who deserves the last piece of cake!

2. Pajamas are the New Couture

Is there anything more glorious than a soft, stretchy pair of pajamas? Whether at home or for an impromptu run to the grocery store, pajamas are not just acceptable—they are encouraged. Comfort is key, darling!

3. Google is Your New Best Friend

Your browser history is about to get really weird! "Can you sneeze a baby out?" "Why do I suddenly love pickles?" Treat Google as your non-judgmental BFF that doesn’t mind the 3 a.m. typing chaos. Channel your inner Sherlock Holmes, queen.

If searching Google at midnight doesn’t make you a parenting expert, then what does?

4. Master the Glamorous 'I'm Not Tired' Lie

Who hasn’t mastered the art of looking less tired than they actually are? The dark circles are badges of honor, and the unwashed hair is a testament to survival. Clear eyes, fuller lashes, can’t lose.

5. Meal Prepping: Your New Favorite Activity

Say it with me: "Frozen casseroles are gifts from heaven." Prepare meals like you're about to hibernate for the winter. Future you will appreciate the culinary forethought, especially on days when making toast seems like a Michelin-star endeavor.

6. When in Doubt, Consult Your Tribe

Your support squad, whether they're family or friends, are there for more than just baby name debates. They're unofficial therapists with snacks. Delegate, share, vent—get those preggo hormones out and feel the sass returning!

7. Buy a Fancy Notebook (Nesting, but Make It Fashion)

The nesting instinct is real. So is the desire for cute stationery! Those nursery visions and daily to-do lists just feel more Pinterest-worthy when penned in a journal that screams 'stylish chaos'.

8. Embrace the Power of Your 'Me Time'

Number one priority: you. Find a bubble bath, grab that guilty-pleasure novel, or stream your current Netflix binge. It's the art of selfishness for the greater good. Now that’s what I call self-care!

9. The Hospital Bag: A Tale of Overpacking

Your hospital bag will progressively turn into a survival kit. Snacks, a plush robe, and maybe a flamethrower considering the varying climates of hospital rooms—or was that just in my head? Pack for an apocalypse, but definitely remember to bring your favorite lip balm.

Become the Mary Poppins of hospital bags, because you never know when you’ll need a spoonful of sugar!

10. Remember, It's Going to Be Worth It

At the peak of losing your mind, remember: soon, you'll meet the little being who's been moonwalking in your uterus at 3 am. They'll soon become the star of your life, making every swollen ankle worth it.

Motherhood: The only role where showing up in mismatched socks means you've got it all together.

So strap in, new mamas! Here’s to the last stretch before wearing the new mantra of motherhood with style, grace, and perhaps just a dab of baby puke. Because no matter what, you've got this! Here's to you, the glamorous, sauce-filled conqueror of motherhood!

Until next time, may your maternity leggings be stretchy, your naps uninterrupted, and your chocolate stash everlasting.
