As a continuation of episode 2, Jamie takes an in-depth look into her first maternity leave. Looking back, Jamie\u2019s oldest was what some would call a \u201cdream baby\u201d. Regardless of that fact, Jamie rode shotgun on the struggle bus. \xa0

Jamie talks about the pressure she felt to entertain her visitors, how she measured her worth as a mother, and what she learned along the way to master her maternity leave with her third daughter. With this being said, the hope is that you don\u2019t have to have 2 or 3 kids to master your leave.

The ladies of NAPS highlight the differences between a visitor and someone who is a helper, establishing boundaries, accepting/asking for help, setting limits and taking necessary time for yourself. Yes, all of these things sound easy on paper, but practice truly does make perfect (and a hype girl, like Jamie or Emily, definitely help).

Practice, make a list, keep us posted, and take advantage of the help that is going to make you feel better emotionally, mentally and physically.
