I was reading through several internet arguments under an Instagram post that said a new mother hadn't showered for three days. Some people where judging her harshly and others where saying it could be an exaggeration or she could've been doing other things besides showering.

It doesn't matter, but I am curious what most people think suffices for decent hygiene?

New mothers are not concerned about showering. They are concerned with sleep and caring for the new baby. I am positive I l didn't shower for serval days at a time being a new mother.

When my depression is bad I have a hard time showering but I am also not out rolling in dirt and filth all day long so not showering every day isn't a big deal.

Typically I shower every day because it makes me feel good not because I am dirty.

@JaggedLittlePill Yeah I would never judge a new mother for something like that, especially if I've never had a baby. Even if I had, everyone's experience is different.
