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.
So you’ve had your baby and spent your two blissful days in the hospital.
Nurses and doctors have been in and out of your room to help you feed and change your newborn.
You’ve had people waiting on you hand and foot.
Bringing a new life into this world can be overwhelming all on it’s own.
Many new moms have no clue where to begin when making a baby registry.
I remember spending THREE hours on our first trip to Buy Buy Baby to make a registry.
That dreadful feeling you have every time you aren’t with your child?
It has a name. Mom Guilt.
Some moms experience mom guilt at higher levels than others or for different reasons.
To the new mama who cried this morning out of pure exhaustion.
To the new mama whose seemingly, sole responsibility is to attend to her newborn’s every little whimper.
