Motherhood expands my life

Motherhood expands my life by… Showing me that I’m capable of so much more than I ever realized. Motherhood has changed me in ways I didn’t expect. I’ve learned to slow down, be present, trust myself, and advocate for what feels right for me and my baby. I’ve discovered a strength and patience I didn’t know I had, and I’ve learned that it’s okay for my priorities to change. It has also reminded me that I’m still me… a woman with dreams, goals, and things I want to accomplish. I don’t have to choose between being a mom and being my own person. I can make room for both.

My nugget has given me a completely different perspective on life. He’s reminded me to celebrate the little moments, appreciate where I am right now, and believe that there are still so many possibilities ahead. Motherhood didn’t make my world smaller. It expanded it in ways I never could have imagined.

Yes girl! Keep it up :raising_hands:

Motherhood can be challenging, and I like how you mention bring an advocate for you and your baby. This was something I struggled with since I’m a first time mom many people try telling me how to raise my baby and I finally had to stand up for me and her. :smiling_face:

I’ve always been someone who shrinks away from attention and tries her hardest not to be a bother. I joke that I’m someone who will apologize for taking up space. But I agree that motherhood demands more of it, and it really has taught me to speak up and advocate for my kiddos. And along the way I’ve gotten much better at advocating for myself.
