It Takes Time, Mama

Our little sunshine just turned 14 months old! Obviously, this means I am also celebrating 14 months postpartum — 13 months of which I breastfed Grace!

Being real with y’all, I’m just now starting to feel like myself — a new, Grace’s mama version of myself yes, but feeling at home finally in this new role both mentally & physically.

New mamas, know that IT TAKES TIME. Not “6 weeks postpartum check up” time, not “4th trimester” time, and not even “9 months out” time. Be easy on yourself, be loving to your body, and be kind to your mind as you heal, rehab, and get to know this new version of you.
