For @joannaknix - our Founder and President, and mom to a 6-year-old boy and twin 4-year-old girls - it’s been a mix of the surprising, the exhausting, and the deeply human moments no one really prepares you for.
Like when, 3 days postpartum, her breasts swelled to the size of soccer balls and she was simply handed ice packs and nipple shields and told to keep trying.
That breastfeeding can be incredibly hard.
That it’s OK to not like Mother’s Day - and that for many, it’s a really hard day.
That the weekends can be more exhausting than the weekdays.
That you’ll constantly question whether you have what it takes - but you’ll realize that you do.
It’s a lot. But it’s also a lot of love ❤️
