1(ish) year postpartum reflections: motherhood, pregnancy, & breastfeeding, oh my!
π§ Listen to my honest thoughts on this stage of life
Itβs absolutely WILD to think that itβs been over a year since Miles joined our family (like, sorry, how do I have a 15-month-old already?!).
I have so much to say about this stage of life.
It feelsβ¦
simple. yet chaotic.
new. yet instinctual.Β
vivid. yet blurry.
joyful. yet draining.
slow. yet fast.
Safe to say, motherhood has been a trip. Some parts are amazing, some draining, some neutral βΒ and today Iβm coming at you with an authentic, no-nonsense recap of the past 15 months of my life as a new mom. (Letβs just say, I had a lot of thoughts)
From pre-conception to labor, all the way to postpartum, marriage, body, and logistics, Iβm breaking it alllllllll down in this podcast-ish episode.Β
When I knew I was βreadyβ to have kids
Things I would (and wouldnβt) do if I got pregnant again
How Iβve changed since becoming a mom
Did I have⦠name regret?!
My experience in the postpartum phase (physically & mentally)
The many hormonal shifts I experienced and how they feltβ postpartum, getting my period back early, weaning from nursing, etc.
The logistics (and specifics!) of our careers, maternity leave, paternity leave, etc.
How our marriage has evolved (and also how itβs stayed the same) since becoming parents
A more thorough review of my breastfeeding, pumping, and weaning experience
A little pep talk on embracing YOUR unique motherhood journey
And just a general βpeek behind the curtainβ of how I have approached motherhood, postpartum, & beyond!
My goal for this particular episode is an off-the-cuff chat about the ups and downs and in-betweens of pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood.
