Skip to contentThe most important part of any stay-at-home mom’s routine is in the morning. Let’s set you up for a great day, every day, with a morning routine you’ll love and can stick to.Earlier than that. No…even earlier.Could you do five-thirty? Five? What if I told you that it would be the single best thing you can do as a stay-at-home mom for your sanity, happiness, and productivity?What if you just tried it, for 30 days, to prove me wrong?Some of the benefits of being up early as a stay at home mom:So important we had to say it three times.Yes, this means you’ll have to go to bed a little earlier, cut back on the afternoon caffeine, and maybe you’ll be a little tired at first. It will be 100% worth it!I know, ew. It sounds so terribly boring, and you just got up early for this?!But doing something like this for your physical and mental health is going to set you up for a great day. It might not feel like it, but your energy is high right now after a good night’s sleep, and getting exercise will just get harder as the day goes on.So much f low-level exhaustion, headaches, and more little issues that make you grouchy during the day are caused by dehydration. Coffee doesn’t count for this (we’ll get there), so get yourself some water with ice and lemon and drink it. This one glass of water won’t cure dehydration, but it’s a good start.Now for the exercise. It doesn’t have to be crazy. A walk is a great choice, especially if you can get outside and maybe bring the dog.

Put something on that you’ve recorded and that you like to watch.Not a TV person? No problem. You can read, meditate, or do whatever you want. Just make sure you aren’t doing work or wasting time.Things that seem tempting but are not great choices:Okay, by now, everyone is probably awake. But instead of feeling exhausted and overwhelmed by those little feet coming down the stairs, you probably feel pretty good. You’ve already gotten your time to yourself and gotten some exercise. Yay! Good morning little people! This makes you feel good, and it makes the kids feel good!It’s time to feed your people breakfast and then immediately transition into getting everyone dressed.What about the breakfast dishes? Hold up, my friend. Get dressed first.Some tips for managing this hectic time of the morning when you have little kids:While all this is going on, you need to get dressed. Every day. Shower. Hair and makeup, if you do that regularly. The works.My grouchiest, worst days are always when I look horrible. I don’t know exactly why, but when you look your best, you feel your best.
