Our second in this 52-week series of weekly rookie mom challenges gets you out of the house once again.

Rookie Moms weekly challenges for new moms

When your baby is in a good mood (or better, sleeping!), scope out the “safe places” at your local shopping destinations where you can feed and change your baby. This will allow you to get out of the house every day and know that you don’t have to race against the clock to get back home.

Rookie Moms Challenge #2: Recon mission

 

Things to stake out:

  • Changing tables in restrooms
  • Comfy chairs for nursing
  • Destinations frequented by other moms with babies in strollers or carriers

I like the children’s area of any bookstore. Find a quiet corner and a tiny chair, and pull out your boob or bottle.

 

Did you complete this challenge? Love it or hate it, tell us about it:

  • Comment below.
  • Share a picture with us on Facebook.
  • Name your destination on Twitter or Instagram and use hashtag #rookiemoms.
  • Or, post a link in the comments to your own blog post about this challenge.
