One thing I learned the hard way: asking for help didn’t make me a bad mother.
It gave me the breathing room to survive and actually enjoy my new baby.
Acceptance is the key. You cannot do everything alone, and that’s ok. We need a break too. I read this daily. It has help me immensely.

I love this it can be so hard to ask for help but it’s one of the strongest things we can do
I always have a hard time asking
Yes it can be so hard to ask for help but it doesn’t make you a bad mom it actually makes you an amazing mom. It takes a village to raise a child

Absolutely! Motherhood is already hard, asking for help can feel like a weight lifting off our shoulders even if it’s a small ask!
It’s so hard to ask for help but it is so important for your mental health! I am trying to be better about it as well

I am still learning how to ask for help. It’s very difficult for me to ask for help.
