Personal hygiene is the second thing to suffer with a new baby--the first obviously being sleep. Unless you absolutely need it (i.e. going to the bathroom), you'll end up putting it off because why take a twenty minute shower when you can sleep for that tinge period? Or eat? Or just change your clothes then eat then sleep?
I'm not saying I haven't showered, I'm saying I haven't done my hair since little man was born and I've certainly looked better. But I don't even care! I mean, when Eric hangs out with little man in the evening after work, I could shower and wash my hair but there's no way I'd have time to straighten it so I don't. Some nights I'll forgo the shower so I can spend time with Eric and Charlie together. Priority wise, my little family is tops and sometimes that means they trump personal hygiene. But I'm not gonna lie, one of these days I'm doing mommy and baby bath time just to kill two birds with one stone.
