No shame in my mom game 👏🙌 . @mrslizlombard👉"Doesn’t it feel sometimes like you are constantly making the “wrong” decision? Like what you’re doing isn’t ever “good enough?” I have felt criticized by other moms for pumping, using a bottle, a pacifier, formula, for sleep training! I have been criticized for posting my postpartum pictures and wearing my belly wraps because then I am “vain” and “care too much what people think.” But little do these people know that yes I DO my makeup 3 or 4 times a week, but it’s usually while I am pumping and I usually have my toddler sitting in the chair with me, climbing on me and putting pretend makeup on his face too. I wear my belly wraps YES to shrink my stomach, but also to help my ab separation and my SPD. . Taking time to “look good” and taking care of myself helps me start my day and feel better about myself, like I am HUMAN again. Motherhood can take away that sane piece of us, and leave us unsure of who we are anymore. The crazy part is, it happens overnight! One day you are pregnant...yes huge and uncomfortable, but you are still able to pee by yourself, drink your coffee while it’s still hot, you don’t have to triple check when leaving the house if you are covered in puke! You know, those little things you took for granted because you never knew they were a luxury 😂 . . My point: As long as you’re doing what’s best for you, your children and your family, you’re making the right choices. Don’t let what others say and do dictate the house you run and the children you take care of. Lions don’t lose sleep over the opinions of sheep! .
