To me being a mom meant my life was complete. It was one of the biggest jobs I wanted to fulfill and I did it 3 times. Pretty amazing right, but why didn’t I feel fulfilled? Why didn’t I feel that I was amazing
I felt confused, I felt alone and scared. I felt like a failure so many times. I felt exhausted and I felt angry.
We are thrown into the role of being a mom once the baby is delivered into our arms and our entire life changes. The person we once were no longer exists. The career and hobbies we had are put on the back burner. Our bodies have been transformed into a milk producing highly hormonal vessel. But what happens to our partner? What changes for them? What do they need to adapt to? Pretty much nothing.
It is very common to feel scared, alone, exhausted, and angry as you journey through the role of being a mom, but how often do we talk about these particular feelings? My goal is to bring awareness and normalcy to this conversation.
