There is no single piece of advice that can prepare you for motherhood. No book has the answer, and as much as people offer their own insight of what to expect, it’s nothing you can really put into words. You really won’t know what it’s like until it happens. In an instant, your whole world changes and you are responsible for another life other than your own! It’s amazing and scary, all at the same time.
I’m not going to lie. I have been calling on God more frequently to help me get through the day. Between feeding, diapers, and entertaining an active baby day after day, life as you know it can get away from you. Of course life will never be the same again, but if you aren’t careful, it is easy to completely lose sight of everything you are apart from being a mother. (I plan to elaborate more regarding post-partum in the near future)
With all that being said, I wasn’t sure how or when to come back to the blog. It’s been a few months since the last post and I havent been ready to share any of my thoughts about this experience (or anything else for that matter) until now. I hope to post on a more regular basis going forward! 😊
