Day 2 💛

:yellow_heart: Day 2

Today, I wish I didn’t feel so guilty for needing a break.
Sometimes I just want a moment to sit, breathe, and not feel like I’m falling behind on something. Being a mom is beautiful, but it’s also a lot, especially when you’re running on little sleep.

I remind myself that taking care of me is also taking care of my baby. I’m still learning that it’s okay to pause.

To any mom feeling overwhelmed today you’re doing enough :white_heart:

I wish we didn’t feel so guilty for needing a minute for ourself but that just means your a great momma. Like you said taking care of you is taking care of the baby as well.

We have to find a balance and make sure I take of myself as well but also find making sure my baby is good too. Even though I know he’s perfectly fine and have the support being a first time mom my anxiety not being around him gets hard at times and want to make sure he’s ok.

It can be so hard to find time to take care of ourselves, but it’s so important we make sure our basic needs are met. We have to find moments here and there to take care of ourselves. It’s so hard, and I don’t like to be away from my baby either. Too bad we don’t have a papoos like a kangaroo :joy:

Haha :joy: if only we had that and it would make it easier for us to always have our babies with us.
