3 Months Mommy Update: Things that aren’t discussed.

Okay let talk about what is never really expressed on social media as everyone wants to only share the good right? And make it seems as they have it all together... welllll WRONG. There is so much to becoming a parent we don’t even have enough time to dissect it all. One it is the most rewarding thing in life and I am blessed to be able to have a child. I know there are tons who even wished they could. But no one prepares you for the mental part of it. That’s the biggest thing of it all. I mean you have 9 months to try and change your mindset but honestly time gets away and you realize you don’t have much time or you feel like you have but it’s different than actually having them here in your arms. You no longer have to think of yourself and you have a little human that you must think of at all times. Every little decision you make will effect them. Now this is coming from my perspective as a “young mom” I’m 23 so if you feel that’s young or just the perfect age. To the elders we would be considered as a young mom lol. You now have to plan out everything in detail and honestly you start to forget a lot of stuff or it feel as you started life over and nothing makes sense or you don’t even do your same routine anymore. I try to make time for myself then you start to feel guilty so you really think well are those days over? Man oh man... it has been tough adjusting to becoming a mom and just everyday battling yourself and telling yourself that you’re doing a great job even when you feel like you could do better. The constant late nigh thinking sessions on how you can do better or wondering about the next steps in their life and if you are prepared. Well You are doing a great job hun! Mom guilt is such a big thing and honestly I don’t know if it will ever go away, but try to tell yourself hey I got this or when you have a good planned out day tell your self heck yeah! This is a piece of cake even when you feel like it’s not. It’s those small things that keep you going and know that you are the best mom and doing your very best. Having good support around you helps so much! Also don’t be afraid to speak up about post partum issues. They are totally normal! I have times where I just sit and cry because I’m totally overwhelmed. But it’s okay. As women we go through so much but also are expected to have it together right away.. I mean men couldn’t possibly do this the way we do it lol ( I’m a bit of a feminist) but I mean ladies if you are with a partner you know exactly what I mean lol. Anyways just wanted to get this going and share something on my mind. I’m 3 months into this mommy thing and well.. idk if I really got it but I think I’m juggling it all so well and try to just prepared for the expected and the unexpected. I have the cutest little girl and now I could not see my life with out her. She is truly the biggest blessing from God. So Audri mommy does everything for you and I hope one day you will realize that and I hope I’m the best mommy.
