The inaugural, Let's Discuss...
Has anyone told you you're not displaying enough gratitude when talking about your little ones? In my first foray into my Let's Discuss... video series, I talk about how much it grates on me when people tell me I'm not living in the moment enough if I post something I think is funny or an adorably-ridiculous thing my child has done in my parenting journey.
Yes, it's okay to be sad when your baby wakes you up at 3am. Yes, it's okay to be frustrated (maybe even drop a cuss word) when you realize you have baby poop on your shirt before a big meeting. Doesn't mean you love your child any less or are any less grateful for the chance to be their parent, right? Set that boundary, walk away from those people who are looking to tell you how you're doing it wrong, and find your group of people who will some alongside you without the need to tear you down to build themselves up.
How do we support each other and also stay in our own dang lane when it comes to parenthood, pregnancy, fertility, and the journey? Let's discuss!
