I’ve worked with hundreds of moms and I can confidently say this.

🌺 You are not alone. This sh*t is hard. 🌺

Everyone has their struggles, even if they don’t show it.

So many moms I work with feel isolated in their struggle even when there are so many moms that feel similar ways.

And here’s the thing ⤵️

👉 Our society doesn’t create safe spaces for moms to say how they’re really feeling.

There’s pressure to slap on a smile and say you’re great/blessed/so happy, even if you’re drowning inside.

Now, I’m not saying being a mom isn’t wonderful in many ways.

I am saying it’s HARD.

And you are not the only one that feels that way, even if the other moms you talk to seem really put together.

Take a risk. Talk to a mom you trust about how you’re really feeling. You may be surprised that you have more in common than you think.

And finally, the hill I will always die on. ⤵️

✨You are the best mom for your baby. You are the expert on her and you are doing a GREAT job.✨

I’m sorry, what..? 🙄

This comment makes moms feel guilty and even worse than they already do.

You can be over the moon grateful/thankful/joyful and still feel overwhelmed.

It is not a reflection of you as a mother or you love for your baby.

Remember the power of the word “AND:”

👉🏻 You can love your baby dearly AND still feel overwhelmed.

👉🏻 You can want a break AND still be a great mom.

Your love and gratefulness for your baby runs deep, no matter what you are experiencing. You got this, mama. 💪🏻

Honestly, at first I just thought I sucked at this ⤵️

I didn’t know why so many moms could be handling things just fine while I was spiraling.

👉Trouble sleeping
👉Scary intrusive thoughts
👉Constant knot in my stomach

It felt like evidence that I couldn’t handle this, that I was a terrible mom.

But here’s the thing ⤵️

Those were symptoms of a medical complication of having a baby. 🩺

And this is so important 👉🏻 They were TEMPORARY and TREATABLE.

Postpartum anxiety may look like:

🚨 Feeling that something bad is going to happen
🚨 Scary intrusive thoughts
🚨 Low appetite
🚨 Can’t sleep if baby is sleeping or cared for by someone else
🚨 Inability to sit still
🚨 Trouble concentrating
🚨 Irritability
🚨 Physical symptoms, like dizziness, hot flashes, chest tightness, racing heart, nausea

They have NOTHING TO DO with your abilities as a mom!

If you’re experiencing symptoms of postpartum anxiety, there is help out there for you!

I am accepting new postpartum clients located in MN. 🙌🏻 If you’re outside MN, has a provider directory to find a postpartum specialist near you. 💕

✨Remember, you NEVER need a diagnosis to ask for help!✨
