6 Things You Need to Do Every Day of Maternity Leave

Before you had a baby, you may have been able to check a dozen things off your daily task list. Be prepared to only tackle one item a day — or if you're lucky, three or four — once you are home alone with an infant. Not only will they manage to interrupt any project that takes more than a few minutes, but they’ll create all sorts of unexpected chores (who knew you could do four loads of baby laundry in a day?) that will veer you off course.

So, unless your list includes things like "sleep," "cuddle," and "breathe," consider not having one at all.
