Mommy Monday’s: Mom Guilt
Okay babes.. let’s have a chat now this is for anyone doesn’t have to be moms.. but since I am a new mommy I’m sure others can relate or if you are expecting in planning to conceive.. I don’t want this to scare you at all! I decided to start a meeting series... Mommy Monday’s where each Monday I share a new mommy post whether it’s how I’m feeling or what I’m going through or even to stuff I want to do for myself or little mom self care moments anything but it’s going to be specifically about mom stuff! So be expecting them each Monday!! Super excited and also let me know what else we should cover in mommy Monday’s... okay so this first topic is mom guilt and boy can we all relate!! Something so small can even give you mom guilt. Well mine rn is feeling bad for even asking for help or feeling like you can’t even complain that you are tired cause you are a mom. I mean we all know how exhausting this can be but people are like “you decided to have one so deal with it!” Well listen hunny... everyone needs a break! If you feel you need a break... please please take one! Ask for help even if it’s so you can run to the store alone or get one load of laundry done with not interruptions. And I mean easier said than done because we all feel like we don’t want to interrupt anyone else’s life for something that’s my responsibility. I mean at I right that’s what it totally feels like so that’s why we just keep to ourselves and tough it out.. well don’t feel bad! Your mental health and state is the most important so you can be the best mommy you can be! I’m currently dealing with an 19mo old and boy oh boy does no one ever really prepare you and well tbh they can’t.. every single child is different but you’re not alone even though they are all different a mom has experienced it in one point and time. Tantrums.. we are dealing with tantrums and sensitivity to being told what to do... I feel drained I’m exhausted. But patience is key! Take it at your pace don’t try to compare your child to anyone else around or near their age! Every child grows and learns at their own pace. Now I know it’s tough cause hey I’m a blogger myself but I know following bloggers and influencers can change your judgement on things, I find myself doing the same! But hey I’m here to be real with you guys and let you know it’s not easy in the slightest bit, but so rewarding how? Because you created a life. Remember that hunn, you created life. You are helping this little life grow and teach them right from wrong and will be there for every milestone they have. You are appreciated mom even if you feel like you are wearing so many hats! Take time for yourself and know it’s okay to do things for yourself and to still put yourself first with out doing it selfishly. I know motherhood is tough to navigate and sometimes feel like that’s all you become, but try your best to not lose yourself you deserve the world as you are the heart of keeping your family together! It’s tough and I know the standards of how women are looked but find your happiness as well! There are so many things we can go on about but I want to let you know you are not alone and I feel guilty all the time for even wanting to ask for help or to even complain in the slightest bit. Okay babes that all I have for this intro to mommy Monday’s! What are ways you feel guilty? Comment down below so we can chat!
