To say it is exhausting being a mom is an understatement. We manage the household and whatever life throws at us, and then add to the mix kids, a baby or a pregnancy. Rather than focusing on all the negatives, we asked moms in the mom.life app to celebrate their recent mom victories both small and huge. 💪🏽💕

➡️ Here are 17 real mom wins that any parent can appreciate and understand! 🏆

“My mom victory is I'm finally starting to get over a phobia of me vomiting I've had the last 10 years because when my baby throws up a lot I can't panic and pass her to her grandma every time! 😆”

“Being able to pump almost 6 oz of breast milk each time and I had her a week ago.”

“Since my twins were born I have suffered from severe postpartum depression and anxiety. My twin daughters will be 6 February 12th, my depression got worse and formed into separation anxiety on top of it all when I had my 3rd child Jaimi who will be 2 February 23rd. I now have a beautiful 3-week old little boy named William and I still suffer from all 3 disorders. Yes, they have gotten worse with each pregnancy but I thank god every day for helping me make it through without the need of medications, and I have successfully been purely breastfeeding for 3 weeks and playing to continue as long as I can.”

“My mom victory was making it to 30 weeks and staying pregnant. I've been in bed rest in the hospital for 5 weeks now, the doctors were sure I would have to have an emergency C-section way sooner, but my son has gotten better and has been staying put 😊”

“I was able to give my daughter a bath on my own. It might not be something so impressive for others, but for me as a ftm was a very scary so yay me! Lol”

"My 15 month daughter can finally go potty without me telling her to go.”

“Mom victory that this girl right here had two daughters all natural no pain meds and with my third daughter I got to cut the umbilical cord since I was by myself (my husband was taking care of our two oldest kids).”

“My son finally fed himself with a spoon!”

“Latest mom victory was making it to 36 weeks! Seems small but with my first we only made it to 34 and that's because the doctors had me on tons of drugs and hospital watch and bed rest so tonight we get to meet my son and our last baby but I'm so proud to have carried this far.”

"Finally have the energy and no pain, so I cleaned my kitchen today, microwave too.”

"I showered today! 🏅”

“My recent mommy victory was getting my 18 month old to sleep in a big boy bed and teach him to tell me when he pottys.”

“Greatest Mom victory was giving birth to a child that I lost in two months and 15 days. I know at first read this may not sound like a Victory but Oh it is. She taught me how to love myself and respect myself. Especially when it came to body, My Angela made me respect myself and what my boobs (lol) were really made for. My daughter taught me how to reeducate myself, because I knew how to take care of were full term babies and ZERO about preemies. Having a Preemie wasn't in my plans but OMGOSH It was the Best journey and best 2 months and 15 days of my life. As an Olympic player you may not always win but you practice and you elevate and you most of all belong where you are. Just like preemies they Fight Hard, They Endure and they overcome. Some babies overcome in the physical world other babies overcome with Angels themselves while routing for us to bring the Highest achievement home. In most cases that achievement is them!”

“My greatest victory is going from bottle feeding my son breast milk till he was 3-4 weeks old then getting him to latch on and now solely be breast feeding him.”

“Mine was surviving 55 hours of labor naturally then giving in and getting the epidural and going through 11 more hours of labor and 5 hours pushing ! I'm very proud of myself for that. and for exclusively breastfeeding for 3 months today!! It may be tough on some days but it’s all worth it for my sweet boy. He deserves the best in life and I intend to give it to him no matter what it costs me ! Being a mommy is the best thing ever !!”

“My greatest victory coming up is having solely nourished my daughter with my breastmilk for a year." #momwinsgold

“My latest mom victory, being able to shower, shave my legs and eat lunch ALL before my son woke up from his nap." #momwinsgold
