What they don't tell you about postpartum is that you'll be fine, but you'll rip your hair out. And then it'll fall out. Massively. Every time you run a brush through it, there will be wads of hair. The thinner it gets, the more tangled it gets.
You will not sleep, even if your baby sleeps through the night. You will wake for every whimper, every grunt, every little noise... but only the important ones.
You'll always be starving, but you'll never have time nor want to eat, because you're suppo...

I love the part of the morning after the baby goes back to sleep and I'm the only one awake... no one screaming for boobs while I eat my chicken nuggets from last night 😋

Well, this sucks. Yesterday I had my first period in almost a year. I haven't had one since December 6th and man, it sucks!

Mommies with Netflix who breastfeed, go watch Breastmilk! It is such a fascinating documentary!

Every mom close to me was a single mother and has multiple kids. I have one child (she turned 2 months this week!) and a supportive husband. They make fun of me when I ask for help, and say "when I had so-and-so, I did all this on my own! I didn't have help!"
I hate feeling inadequate because I ask for help.

Asking for a friend.
"I just had a baby about two months ago and i smoked half a joint last night but my husband was sober and watching the baby. Am I a bad mother? Should I stop smoking completely? I formula feed so it isn't a breast milk issue, but one of my friends told me I was neglecting my baby and I was a shitty mother. I just feel so bad. Was my friend right? Do you think he'll call CPS on me? I have really bad anxiety and a little bit of anger problems so I smoke a little to self-medic...

My neighbor is screaming at her 3 and 2 year old kids from the basement in her house... I know, because I've been listening to it all morning. I sure hate mom shaming, but she does it to me so I do it right back. She pisses me off telling me I need to put my two month old in day care 😡
I just remind her that her kids have speech problems not because she waited to put them into day care, but because she didn't talk to them after they got past the cute little baby stage and evolved into the (freak...

Love this little piggy!!!

I'm just so frustrated sometimes at all the unsolicited advice. Like, my neighbor (who never really talked to her kids, so they have speech issues) is pressuring me about putting CeCe into daycare early. I'm a stay-at-home mom and exclusively breastfeeding at this point (she's started refusing bottles for the most part and I'm too lazy to pump), and I don't plan on putting her in daycare until she's at least a year old, if not school age. She mommy shames me about other stuff too... but that's t...
