✨ 🍁 COMMUNITY Check-IN 🍁 ✨

HAPPY SUNDAY MAMAS !!! :brown_heart:

I figured since we just entered into a new season we should do a quick check in to see how everyone is feeling with the change and new beginnings the cooler temperatures and holidays right around the corner :jack_o_lantern: :ghost:

today w was thinking this prompt “ Falling Into Feelings” just felt so appropriate so whether you are pregnant, postpartum or just been in the thick of it for awhile please feel free to join in if you’d like.

:maple_leaf: LETTING GO

What’s something you’re ready to release this season? Maybe it’s guilt, expectations, or the pressure to do it all.

:brown_heart: HOLDING SOMETHING CLOSE

What’s something you’re feeling especially grateful for right now? A little moment, a milestone, or someone who makes motherhood sweeter.

:seedling: PLANTING HOPE

What’s something you’re looking forward to or hoping to nurture in this next season of motherhood?

However motherhood may look these days just know you are doing amazing :brown_heart: and I’m so happy to share this space with you

ugh ready to let go of feeling guilty abt wanting a higher level of care for my Father but it’s easier said than done. I am very grateful for my miracle baby, I’m grateful for both of my kids of course but finding out i have pcos syndrome & wanting to expand my family after that was hard-very thankful for getting pregnant with baby boy. Looking forward to trying to conceive again, last month wasn’t so great but we have the proper dosing for infertility medication for this month sooooo finger’s crossed and toes haha. and what about you

I am SO ready to let go of the unrealistic expectations I have of having a clean house​:weary_face::weary_face::weary_face::weary_face: it bothers me so much! But I’ve got a toddler, a 5 month old, 2 hairy dogs and a messy husband. It is what it is!!! I just wish I could feel like that all the time.

I’m so thankful for my family. Our village. Honestly without them I don’t know where I’d be today. They’ve helped me in the hardest moments and they are the ones who hold me up :two_hearts:

That feeling of guilt is just your love and care you have so much for your father and it shows I hope things can get better soon I know that’s easier said than done but I still am putting that out there for you

ALSO I am crossing all the things fringes, toes and ever my arms and legs hahah sprinkling baby dust everywhere for you :sparkles::sparkles::sparkles::sparkles:

My close friend has PCOS and she is going through the exact same thing with her husband !! Hoping I hear good news from you and her at the same time!!

I am right there with you!!! I have a messy almost 1 year old and a blue cooler husband who can’t seem to grasp the concept of taking off his work boots and a Great Pyrenees who thinks he is one of our cats

You are doing great I know that’s easier feeling all to well

And that is so beautiful I am so happy you have an amazing village to lean on that makes my heart so so happy

He isn’t into soilds that’s the other problem we are facing he would rather throw it than eat it! But he does like his teething biscuits so maybe I’ll try frozen waffles it seems like a similar type of thing !!! That’s a great idea :light_bulb:

I hope he starts enjoys food more soon he’s such a funny little guy

Do you make them from scratch or do you buy a specific brand

I give whatever my other littles eat! Aldi has some pumpkin waddles you could try! I think they are pumpkin protein waffles. But Kodiak makes a good healthy option too! Also we are Sam’s Club members so we buy their French toast sticks
