So, you feel like the old you is
gone? Or that she’s a distant memory? Perhaps you feel like you’re lost in the
fog of sleepless nights, of nappy changes, sterilising and washing? Perhaps
you’re struggling to remember what made you YOU; the woman you were before? Or
that you’re losing the battle? Well, let me tell you why you’re not lost…
Yes, there will be days when you
feel lost in domesticity or days when you feel as though you’ve done everything
for everyone and nothing for yourself but let me tell you this; you’re a
warrior! Childbirth? You survived it! Sleepless nights? Pah, you’re still
standing! You have utterly devoted yourself to this tiny little human; you care
for her, protect her, nourish her and love her and you think you’re losing the
battle? No chance! You’ve been presented with your greatest ever challenge and hey, you stepped
up. And you will be victorious! So listen up, you’re not lost, you’re finding
yourself! Think the old you is gone? Then make way for the new one because girl, you’re a goddess.
And you’ve got this.

DeleteThis was just the tonic for me this evening!

DeleteOh gosh, you got me just at the moment I needed this. I have a post in my drafts that I'm hesitating on pressing publish, all about losing myself in motherhood. We all need a boost in our motherhood journey - there are so many stages we go through and it's never a walk in the park. Thanks for joining us at #SharingtheBlogLove
ReplyDeleteLove it! I've definitely a different person since motherhood, but I'm realising that is ok and this version is better. Thank you for joining us at #SharingtheBlogLove
ReplyDeleteThis resonates a lot with me at the moment as the three little people seem to take over life!!! Struggling to do anything for myself or know who I am sometimes #sharingthebloglove
ReplyDeleteYES! Say it again (because I need to hear it!). Thank you for your words of encouragement. #sharingthebloglove
ReplyDeleteThank you. After a bad week this is what I needed! :) #sharingthebloglove
ReplyDeleteAfter having an epically shit week, this post was the tonic I needed to survive the last part of the week. Roll on the weekend and attempting to spend some much needed time on myself and my marriage! I'm feeling utterly at sea, completely lost and reading this has made me get myself together and book a night out with my husband. Making myself and my marriage a priority. Thanks to all those mummy bloggers out there who have helped me feel a little less lonely and lost #sharingthebloglove
ReplyDeleteOh I love this! Very true, it’s all so hard some days, but if we get to the end of the day and we’re all still alive then I guess we’ve got it! And I quite like the new mummy me anyway. #SharingtheBlogLove x
