I will never be one of those bloggers...hell one of those women that will ever try and act like motherhood is easy.
Being a first time mother undoubtably is the hardest job I ever have and probably ever will take on. While it does get better as the weeks and months roll on, those first 2 months (8 weeks) are stressful enough to break even the strongest super woman in us all.
So having experienced everything from an emergency "induced" labor, to a hospitalization just days after being sent home with my baby to breastfeeding complications, postpartum anxiety and more.
I feel like I've survived my fair share of new mom woes and im just qualified enough to let you know the best ways to push through the first few tumultuous weeks to and get to the other side.
It's hard to believe right?
That there are points where a mother could actually "hate" being a mom. I put hate in quotes only because I don't really ever hate being a mom, I love my kid. But there are very many points where I STRONGLY DISLIKE having the responsibility of being a mother.
However if we let movies and the media (social or otherwise) tell it disliking mommyhood NEVER happens! All moms are perfectly well adjusted, happily living your ideal momming goals day in and day out. Hair perfect, outfit perfect, child perfect.
And if your shit ain't perfect like that image or you dislike anything about being a mom. Well, you're just not doing it right and maybe you're a bad mom *insert mom shaming and guilt here*. But none of that is true, if you have moments of distress, depression or moments where you question "how is this my kid" or even "hate" being a mom.
YOU ARE NORMAL!
And in the name of transparency i'm here to share my top 5 times when I "hate" being a mom.
