Navigating parenthood and changes in seasons is HARD.
Navigating parenthood and those changes while also navigating loss and grief - seems impossible sometimes. 

Today's episode is a sensitive one, but one that must be had. 
Finding ways to navigate our grief, healing and emotions while also trying to keep our children safe is so challenging. 

We'll talk about why it's so hard to navigate parenthood during grief and also things you can do to overcome those challenges and grieve alongside your parenting duties.

Everyone prepares you for what to expect during pregnancy. 
You take classes on childbirth and delivery. 
You're ready for the baby - the nursery is decked out, the closet and dresser full of clothes and the toys and gadgets fill your home. 
You have a baby and bring them home...

NOW WHAT?

No one prepares you for what comes next or what to expect in the months and years following birth. No one tells you how to take care of YOURSELF in the HEALING PROCESS of giving birth - whether vaginal or Cesarean. 

We want to make sure you feel PREPARED. That you know what to expect. 
In today's episode we're talking about all things postpartum prep - the PHYSICAL ASPECT. 

What to expect in healing, what you need to have to help you with recovery. 


With the help of our friends and family on IG we were able to get personal perspectives and "wish I knew that" tidbits from mamas who gave birth via C-section AND our own experiences via vaginal birth. 

We hope this conversation brings you peace and gives you ideas on how to prepare. 
GET YOUR NOTEBOOKS READY!!

Are you feeling tired and frustrated navigating mom life? HI! so are we. And today we're  talking about it, because talking about it makes it feel less daunting. Knowing someone else is going through it and can validate our feelings makes it feel a little lighter. 

And, no, we don't have any answers but this is a real and honest conversation about what we are navigating and what steps we've been taking to make it a SMIDGE easier on ourselves.

What good is a boundary if we don't uphold it? If we don't enforce it?

In this episode, we're giving you tactical tips that work for us when it comes to setting and ENFORCING those boundaries. Because we know that creating the boundary is the easy part. But actually sticking to it and allowing yourself to uphold those boundaries is the tricky part.

In part three of this 4 part series, we're covering all things EMOTIONAL boundaries. The ones that we struggle with the most because they're the *typically* the hardest for others to understand. 

We cover WHAT those boundaries can sound like and HOW you can set them with those around you to protect YOUR mental space.

In this four part series, we're going to cover three types of boundaries to set as moms, why they're important AND how to implement them. 

Part TWO is all about setting PHYSICAL boundaries. Who can touch you? When can they touch you? What about your baby - who can hold them and when? Are you having visitors right away? Who can touch your pregnant belly? And what about INTIMACY with your partner postpartum? Privacy who? Need a minute to pee or shower alone?

We're covering it ALL!

We'd love to know what YOUR physical boundaries look like and HOW you uphold them, so send us a DM or tag us in your stories to let us know!

Part ONE is all about setting boundaries around your TIME. How you invest it, who you invest it in, and how you're upholding that boundary with yourself and with others. 

We'd love to know what YOUR time boundaries look like and HOW you uphold them, so send us a DM or tag us in your stories to let us know!

It is NO JOKE that we become totally different people when we become mothers. It's beautiful and it's necessary. BUT that doesn't mean it's easy.

So if you're like us and you're feeling lost and like "what the heck am I even supposed to do..." then you're in the right place at the right time. 

Today we dive into the identity shift (read: crisis) that we experienced postpartum and in our motherhood journeys, how we've (attempted to) navigate it and what's working for us right now.
