❤️Raw Talk ❤️
While I love sharing the 🌈 and ☀️-y days…not all days are like that. Lately it’s been more challenging. Having an almost 18mo old has its super challenging days. Night terrors = sleepless nights, temper tantrums, hitting/scratching, diaper changes are a like a WWF match, teething = endless nursing…plus Eddie started back up with homeschool today. It’s a lot. I’m tired, I’m exhausted. Ryan helps a ton but Max is in an extreme Mommy phase 🤪
The last two years have been rough. I miss life pre March 2020 😷. I miss popping into a workout class, grabbing coffee with a friend and travel with our family. I know this is a season of life. I know we will all get through it. Some days are just tough. I know I’m not having the postpartum depression I did when I had Eddie but I have something like that likely because of what’s going on In our world. I was really looking forward to meeting some new moms when I had Max in breastfeeding and baby classes. I miss having any classes to go to with Max. It just can feel so lonely and isolating. I’m so grateful for FaceTime and Zoom
Thank you mingey amy_koppelman talking about new mom life so candidly yesterday. It was so refreshing. #amouthfulofairmovie is a must watch for any mom/parent whether it’s your first or fifth. I found myself in that movie so many times. A rare gem. Postpartum depression and anxiety are just not talked about enough. There is so much stigma around and there shouldn’t be. So many of us have been through it. I’m so grateful that this topic has made it to the big screen. It’s on digital and on demand. Highly recommend this movie!
If you are going through a rough patch like me, you aren’t alone. I’m sending you a big hug. We are in this together. I’m only ever a DM away if you want to chat. Also give yourself grace. I am. There is always tomorrow to try again ❤️
