When I first became a mom, I thought information would give me confidence.
Instead, it made me spiral.
Everywhere I looked, there was another “expert” telling me how I should be doing things:
📱 Sleep trainers promising a perfect schedule.
📱 Bloggers swearing by the “right” way to start solids.
📱 Influencers selling courses on how to stop every tantrum.
And the more I consumed, the more I doubted myself.
Because no one tells you that there is an entire industry that profits off of moms feeling unsure.
Off of our anxiety.
Off of the love and worry we carry for our babies.
But here’s what I’ve learned:
✨ No program knows your baby like you do.
✨ No algorithm can tell you what your child needs in this moment.
✨ No stranger on the internet loves your child the way you do.
And when I quieted the outside noise, I finally noticed what was right in front of me…
My child’s cues.
Their rhythm.
Our connection.
That’s when I remembered… I am the expert on my baby.
So if you’ve been drowning in advice, let this be your reminder:
You don’t need to get it “perfect.”
You just need to be present, willing to learn your child, and trust the wisdom you already carry.
💌 Save this for the days the noise gets too loud… and share it with a mom who needs to be reminded of her own power, too.
