@natsnug: Nobody really prepares you for how two completely opposite emotions can exist at the same time. 🥹💔 You can be experiencing one of the greatest blessings of your life and simultaneously going through one of the hardest seasons you’ve ever faced. You’re supposed to be soaking in every second, enjoying every newborn cuddle, every tiny milestone, every beautiful moment… but sometimes your own body and mind make that feel almost impossible. The hormones, the exhaustion, the emotions you can’t explain, the overwhelming feeling of trying to be everything for everyone while barely recognizing yourself. And perhaps the hardest part is knowing just how beautiful this chapter is, how quickly it will pass, and feeling like some of that beauty is being stolen from you by things you can’t always control. You can be incredibly grateful and still struggle. You can be completely in love with your baby and still feel overwhelmed. You can love motherhood with every fiber of your being and still have days when you don’t feel like yourself. One doesn’t cancel out the other. I wish we talked more about this side of postpartum. Not to take away from the beauty of motherhood, but because mothers deserve to experience that beauty without feeling guilty for the moments when it’s hard to see it. 🤍 To every mama navigating this beautiful, messy, exhausting, emotional season… I see you. 🫶🏼 #mom #postpartum #pregnancyjourney #newborn #momoftwo
