In our quest for becoming the best moms that we can be, we tend to focus our time and energy in taking care of the kids and the whole family, leaving our needs the least of our priorities. This routine drains our energy, health, and confidence, leaving us feeling frumpy — the farthest thing from feeling sexy!
Here are some mom tips on how you can gain back your confidence, and your inner hotness:
1. Make time for yourself.
Start squeezing in mom time into your day no matter how overwhelming your schedule is. A 5-minute break or an hour mom time, it doesn’t matter. If you won’t start allocating time for yourself, you’re not going to have time for yourself. Chores, my hot moms, will never end. Start making yourself a priority. Soaking in the tub, taking a nap, reading a book, whatever helps you experience and enjoy the moment. Just make the time — you deserve it.
2. Sweat it out!
Not only will you have a hotter, sexier body in the long run, exercise gives you more energy, and elevates your mood. You’ll benefit from becoming happier, and less stressed and could improve your relationship with your husband, kids and the people around you, helping you gain more confidence for yourself. You don’t have to go to the gym to exercise. Eversince I started working from home, I’ve given up my gym membership and just workout in my basement. My list of chores doubled with the fact that I now work from home but I still managed to establish a routine that includes working out. Remember: “If there’s a will, there’s a way.”
3. Update your clothes.
A lot of moms tend to wear larger sizes because they struggle with the whole body image thing but realizes that once they start wearing something more “fitting” to them, they become more in tune with their inner sexiness and feel more like a woman.
4. Get your nails done.
There seems to be a lot of moms who feel more sexy after a manicure and/or a pedicure. There’s something about having a really nice cute feet with nice color that makes you feel good about yourself especially in the summer, or when you’re in bare feet. One of my favorite things to do!
5. Get you hair done.
Getting your hair and/or color done on a regular basis is a great confidence booster. Just make sure you consult with your hairstylist on what will go with your face shape and skin tone.
Remember, the best moms are the happy and confident moms. Taking care of ourselves teaches our kids to take care of themselves.
Our kids rely and learn from us, and they deserve to have the best role models.

hi! this post helped me realize that yeah… i really need to give time to myself… thanks for inspiring us… i am looking forward for your more posts…
I do try to allocate time for myself whenever possible, but as we all know it isn’t easy when your a mom. I usually go grocery shopping Friday or Saturday and I leave the kids at home with my husband. I’m a stay at home mom so this time out is very important to me. I like to go to my favorite coffee shop and enjoy a coffee by myself and I make sure to visit at least one store that I don’t intend on buying anything from, usually because it’s out of our budget, just so I can look around and add to my dream list. It helps me to stay focused on my future.

Thanks for the post!!!
love it!!!
Good ideas.
These tips are wonderful — I totally agree…wow, a soak in the tub sounds great now.
I am enjoying reading everything…keep up the great tips.
Permission is important. If we give ourselves permission to have time to take care of ourselves knowing that we’ll be back more energized and renewed, and a better mom for our family, that would remove feeling guilty for having to take time for ourselves.
It’s true that getting your hair done or putting on a nice outfit can suddenly make you feel different and more confident. If you feel it, you’ll act it – and that’s definitely being a hot mom!
It takes time to take care of ourselves but we need to make that commitment. I have a to do list every single day to take care of myself and go through it faithfully. When there’s many things to do that day, I put the things near me so I can do them in my little breaks in between tasks.
The only ting that I really don’t do is paint my nails…. hee hee.
All the best,

AWESOME!!! So many of us Moms get overloaded. These are things that single people have the time for–but that’s really what we need!! We need to reconnect with the things “we used to get to do.” Getting our nails done–perfect to relax. Getting your hair done–perfect time for you to be the focus again. Updating our clothes–very important NOT to feel frumpy!
Bottom line is–We’re worth it! So do it–make the time!
