    Let's start with the definition of "mojo" from Merriam-Webster

    mojo
    noun, mo·jo \ˈmō-(ˌ)jō\
    Simple Definition of mojo:
    : a power that may seem magical and that allows someone to be very effective, successful, etc.

    Get Your Mommy Mojo Back After Having A Baby

    Hi Everyone, at the time of this post, it's 25 months (i.e. 2+ years for those of you that do not think in months since I had my daughter.

    M. is my first child and the experience of having her has been the most transformative experience in my life to date.

    It has far surpassed any big moments I have had that I can think of to possibly compare to - like getting into college, moving out on my own, graduating from college, getting my first job offer out of college, getting engaged and getting married, etc. (It's funny how those other significant events, now pale in comparison!)  

    During this time after having her, I have meditated on what has kept me centered, renewed my sense of self, and kept my "mommy mojo" intact and grow stronger.

    1. Stay Socially Connected

    In those early days after having a baby, it is a special, magical time and the post-partum time can also be lonely.

    There are so many groups that I connected with and have maintained friendships through them.

    Sometimes, a group might not work out or you just can not get to all of them but stick with going to meet-ups, play dates, etc. and you will find worthwhile friendships and will share good times with other parents and their babies/kids.

    It is so great to see all the kids grow up together, really, it is very sweet.

    Here are some suggestions of ways to stay socially connected:
