I didn’t even realize she was looking at the camera till Blair pointed it out. 🤣
Two months postpartum and I felt a little more like myself in today’s workout. Postpartum hormones are something ELSE!
Not to mention how overheated you get at night, the sleep deprivation, cortisol spiking when baby cries (which is often lol) adjusting to your squishy body, and the challenges breastfeeding brings.
Torture tactics don’t got anyTHANG on us mommas, having a baby basically prepares you for war lol. I said what I said.
Starting over nearly 10 years later is HUMBLING. The amount of selflessness you have to surrender to was something I had forgotten about since all my kids are older and yes they still need me, but they don’t NEEEEED me like a baby does.
We’ve relocated 300 miles away from Glen Rose. 🥲 Which has been an adjustment on top of everything else and Yvonne is just riding the wave of this thing called life.
Still breastfeeding and some days I have thoughts of how I’m over it and want to throw in the towel, but somehow we’re still exclusively breastfeeding. This is the longest I’ve made it and I’m just taking it day by day doing my best to not judge myself because a fed baby and healthy mental state momma is always the most important.
My timer is now this sweet little nugget of mine and some days she’s extremely fussy/clingy to where all I get is steps in, and some days she lets Mommy get a solid workout in. Today was one of those days and my mental health is so incredibly thankful. 🥹
