Have you ever wondered, how the HECK am I supposed to find the time to take care of myself when I have a baby who demands ALL of my attention?
Am I being selfish for wanting to feel good about myself again after I’ve had a baby?
Believe me, I can totally relate to these thoughts and feelings!
Breastfeeding vs bottle feeding (or formula feeding) is such a hot topic.
Why do you care how I feed my kid? I am not feeding your kid!
But, as a first time mom, you are bombarded with so many ways to help your newborn.
I was so happy when I finally got pregnant, even though I was 40-years-old.
You can read all kinds of articles or blog posts about how risky it is, but I’m sharing my story, the mostly good and a little bad.
So you’re in the doctor’s room, being poked and prodded in a most undignified way.
I guess you have to accept that it’s par for the course when you’re pregnant.
All your dignity goes out the window. But finally the grainy image appears on the screen and you feel all gooey because you see your little bean in there.
Until the doc says with a delighted giggle: “Oh wait, there are two.”
Finding out you are having twins is pretty shocking.
So your BFF is becoming a new mom! Whether you are a mom or not, you might be wondering what you can do to help.
Becoming a mom for the first time is one of the most life-changing events. No amount of organizing or cleaning can really prepare you for how life is about to change.
It can be overwhelming, anxiety-inducing, and just plain hard at times.
Okay mamas! You have done the hardest job of all.
You delivered a precious baby after carrying for 10 whole months. You’ve endured morning sickness, night sweats, and heartburn.
You haven’t had a good night’s sleep, a shower, or a good meal in DAYS! You have put all of your energy into taking care of this brand new baby.
Motherhood.
It seemed so easy, until I became a mom.
I walked into the hospital with grand ideas about what motherhood would be like, but when I came out (with my new baby), it was like everything had shifted. I was no longer the same person. It was like I had to learn how to be me again, but in a different way.
Are you a nursing mama who is heading back to work after maternity leave?
Are you wondering how you will have the time and feeling overwhelmed by the thought of pumping at work?
I know that feeling well and want to help!
