Repeat after me “I’m vulnerable to motherhood because I’m human but I’m strong and I can do this”. Okay, so you’re here now, motherhood is hard but there ain’t no turning back. It’s tougher then you thought and your making so many sacrifices. I know, we all are and you’re not alone.
Just stop for a second, really think about what you’re doing, what your accomplishing, what you’ve achieved. You’re raising another human being from scratch, easy is not an option for anyone in that. If you got to get through this, acknowledge it’s hard and let’s move on from that and try to enjoy it and do the best darn job we can.
When it gets really hard, don’t sit in a corner and cry! Life’s to precious to drown in misery, do whatever you can that will lift your spirits to push through, put on your favourite song and dance through the hardship if you have to. Don’t work towards scared and numb, work towards the strong, invincible superhuman version of you. You are supermum!
You’re currently living the best years of your life and you don’t even know it! You’re the new and improved super human version of you as a result of being a mother. You’re someone little’s EVERYTHING and someone cares about you more then you will ever know because of the privilege motherhood gave you.
To all you incredible mothers reading this, awaken the supermum within and keep your head up! You got this!
