Truth be told, I never thought I would have another baby. My pregnancy with Lucianna wasn’t the easiest and then we struggled with everything imaginable once she was here: colic, milk intolerance, and no sleep because of those. I had horrible postpartum depression but had no idea what I was feeling in the moment. I only recognized it months later after spending night after night crying alone in my laundry room. It was such a tough time ; I pretended everyday I was okay but deep down I was struggling. Fast forward almost 4 years later and we decided to try again. I wanted so badly for Lucianna to have a sibling. While this second pregnancy was even harder than my first, I could not imagine life without this little boy of ours. He is so happy, healthy, and perfect and has completed our family and filled my heart. ❤️ . . . . #honestmotherhood #motherhoodthroughig #motherhoodunplugged #candidmotherhood #boymama #momoftwo #postpartumdepression #postpartumhealth #boynursery #nurseryinspo #shiplap #nurserydecor #decorforkids #modernfarmhouse #thedesigntwinslove #modernfarmhousestyle #paintedfurniture

(credit @mommingwithtruth) - It can often be hard to let others help out with our babies. It’s easy to feel like they are OUR babies. We carried them. We birthed them. But, I also think this stems from the belief that moms have to do and be all the things without help from anyone else. This is a total lie. Moms need help. Moms need rest. They should be encouraged and not judged for either of those things.

I’ll never forget that day as long as i live. Leaving the coffee shop it took every ounce of energy for me to get to, five minutes after i got my coffee because my 3 week old son wouldn’t stop crying. And sobbing, holding him, my 12 pound diaper bag, coffee sloshing around in that ridiculous “cup holder”, trying to push the carriage out the door too narrow to fit it, i dragged myself to my car. And then i heard it...this stranger’s voice telling me one day I’ll miss it. I have never wanted to throat punch another human being more in my life. The newborn phase was not my friend. I struggled in every way a woman can struggle. And I never thought it would end. And sometimes, fleetingly, I miss his dimpled hands & soft hair...but I definitely do not miss those times or that phase. And his hugs now feel just as amazing. And his “I love you mom” are music. And I wish someone would have said to me, “it’s ok to struggle” Or “you will find your way” or simply left me alone to my tears without your judgement. Mammas...wherever you are, I can only say I’ve been there and it gets better or I’m on my way to where you are so tell me I’m doing ok. . . . . #justathought #postpartumdepression #mystory #wemadeit #dontmissit #inspiration #support #funny #momproblems #funnymom #momhumor #momlife #dadlife #parenting #parenthood #motherhood #mom #mommy #moms #momming #momsofig #momsofinstagram #momstheworst

Do you ever feel like you don't really have a birth story because you had a cesarean birth? I’ve felt that way at times but now I know that’s simply not true. Maybe you pushed for hours only to end up with an emergency c-section. Maybe you came in with contractions but were taken back for a cesarean without ever feeling the urge to push. Maybe your doctor told you early on in your pregnancy that you'd require a c-section to safely deliver your baby or babies. Maybe after weighing the options, you chose a repeat cesarean instead of a VBAC. Maybe some complications arose in the very end of your pregnancy that required a scheduled yet unexpected c-section. Of course there are SO many more scenarios. I've shared many beautiful, honest, real c-section birth stories here and look forward to sharing several more. It is my mission to share these stories, to show that birth doesn't only happen one way and that EVERY birth deserves to be considered a story. Whether or not you want to share it publicly or keep the memories of your child’s birth to yourself, I respect your choice. I have yet to share either of my birth stories. I’m finally getting to the point where I at least want to write them out for myself (first). I don't want to forget how I brought my boys into this world. I already notice some of the details disappearing from my memory and it makes me sad. So I’m here to remind you that your story is YOURS and your story MATTERS mama❤️ . Are you PROUD of your c-section and how you brought your baby into the world?

Still beyond me that women get treated the way they do...When mom is not okay, NO ONE is okay. Maternal mental health disorders affect the WHOLE family. Maybe if the men in charge start to realize this, they will actually give a damn!

Shared by one of our @motherhoodunderstood mamas, @i.am.you.mama - We don’t always realize that postpartum depression doesn’t discriminate, especially when we have fought so hard to have a baby. It can be extremely shocking, painful, and confusing when a woman finally has her baby after trying and experiencing loss and grief and then is hit hard with postpartum depression or another maternal mental health disorder. She wonders, “What is wrong with me? I wanted my baby with all my being. I did everything I had to so I could have this baby. Why am I not happy? Why don’t I feel love and connection?” She is consumed by guilt and shame for having these feelings. She doesn’t realize that no one is immune to maternal mental health disorders. She might not even know she has one. And she might stay silent because she doesn’t want anyone to know that after such a long journey, she’s not feeling the way she thought she would. We need to talk more about maternal mental health disorders and how they do happen after struggles with infertility, IVF, miscarriages, and the feelings of grief and loss that can occur as a result. A woman’s mental health should be addressed and made a priority here every step of the way. Do you have a similar story? Share with us in the comments. You are never alone here.

Before becoming a mom, you were carefree, less anxious, and spontaneous. Or maybe you were quiet, calm, and certain. You recognize this person you “used to be” and you can’t seem to find her. You’re on this journey through motherhood, and while trying to raise good humans, you long to be that carefree girl again. . . . Truth is, at some point throughout this journey, moms feel lost and disconnected from themselves. It’s natural as you become the life source for a little person that needs you, constantly. The former freedoms you once had to literally do whatever you wanted, those are gone. You no longer focus on your own needs because you focus on taking care to meet the needs of those around you. You try to live up to this unreal expectation of the “perfect mom,” when simply, she doesn’t exist. You find that you try to hang on to the old and familiar, as much as you can, when truthfully, your current reality doesn’t permit it. You’re battling mental health challenges that you never thought you would or that previously may not have been a problem. . . . These…things that occur, they may cause you to ask yourself, “Who am I?” . . . If this is or has been your experience, I’ll share some strategies to reclaiming a (new) YOU in tomorrow’s post. . . . What else would you add to this list of why mom may lose their identity?

And yet we are still failing so many moms in so many ways. Shout out to all the brave moms coming forward and sharing their stories, the moms who who are suffering and are scared and feel shame because of society’s expectations of what a mom should be and do (you are not alone and we are here for you), and all the individuals, organizations and medical professionals dedicating themselves and their time to changing this, making sure all women get diagnosed and get the care for illnesses that are SO TREATABLE. (If I forgot to tag you I’m sorry and also there is a 20 tag limit and there are way more than 20 accounts dedicated to this work and I see every one of you and I am grateful to every one of you!)
