Hey mamas, so I want to know what is the most challenging thing about like being a first-time mom, especially that first year. My daughter will be turning one soon in July and like there's so many things that crossed my mind that were like difficult as a first-time mom. And definitely even like the relationship, how the relationship changes between like me and my boyfriend. Like People warned me saying that it's gonna be really tough and stuff. And it definitely was. It's been quite a roller coaster between us, but we are doing our best. And I know we actually do have our daughter sleeping in the crib. So that way we kind of don't get into that habit of having her sleep with us. And I don't have any problem with people that do sleep with their babies. I kind of do want to but my boyfriend was like the stern one I feel like that I needed and we have her in the crib so at least we don't have to worry about that but Yeah, like just I want to know like people who have babies that are older than one like how was your relationship with your partner? Like did it get better after that first year? Did it get harder? Did it kind of stay the same? I definitely see him in like a whole new light so it's like a new love kind of thing but we definitely had our moments and I think that's just like the anxiety anxiety of being new parents and like just not knowing you know what's next and stuff like that but if you can get through those challenges I feel like maybe it's gonna get only better from here.
And the fact that I am doing this all alone without a husband of this is the only difficult part because you're even if you don't want to help at times you just want your partner or the parent of your child to be there
Hi, so okay, I have to say that I love being a mom. I'm a single mom and there's obviously bad days and there's good days and I feel like the worst thing is when they're sick. When he's sick and I'm sick because like I don't have energy for my own self and it's like you have to really really fight to be there for your child even though you're sick so I feel like the most difficult thing is when
Yeah that Hass to be difficult when you don't you know when you're a single mom and you don't have anybody else to help take care on I've definitely had some experiences where like my stomach was hurting and I'd have to put her like in the cause when my boyfriends at work or whatever I have to put her in the crib that way she can't go anywhere but at least the bathroom is close enough but yeah we get like stuck on the toilet and I feel so bad for her but yeah what are you do for for work on do you work
So I personally am not a mother but I have worked on the woman's floors for labor and delivery at the hospital and a lot of things that I hear that first time mom struggle with it is the fact that nobody truly asks the mom how they're doing after giving birth it's always how's the baby do you know how was the labor how was the delivery but never hey how are you how are you feeling
Yes yes yes I agree with this so much and it's so true like it's just so true as soon as you give birth immediately everyone just straight to the baby has the baby you know it's true it's almost like the mom just like doesn't matter after that so thank you for acknowledging that it's it's so spot on
So I literally got pregnant two months after I met my partner so it changed a lot in my life basically completely changed I had to start I hate I was literally in college all the time so I just love doing that oh man so much difficult things basically had to restart my life over with school and my job and career and blah blah are you watching but seriously that for me I just getting over the fact that I messed up my whole career
I really messed it up, but I had to put a big old pause on it. I had two kids back to back so So, one day, one day I'll get there and I'll be making the big bucks one day.
I hear you whether her babies playing or not I just feel like it definitely changes your whole life big time but yeah what career plans did you have because I definitely feel like my career plans definitely changed and yeah it's definitely hard to do that with a little one under one right now so I'm trying to figure out ways on how I can make money while being home with her
I would definitely say the toughest thing for us personally was just kind of balancing it all. My husband at the time had a very demanding job. I was staying home but working part-time from home which I totally regret. I feel like I should have just let my job go. It was helpful to have the money but we didn't necessarily need it and I think I drove myself crazy.
I see so much like asking for help and not feeling guilty or like freaking out at your kiddo and not feeling guilty you know like I feel like it's just so much like that is so hard mentally well being a parent and I was like the attachment issues and just like the terrible twos and you know I just I feel like almost everything is hard
Yes, I agree. Definitely having that guilt asking for help because you know you just feel like you're supposed to just do it all but it's like you know that saying it takes a village it obviously is for a reason so but I have the same way it is hard to ask for help but sometimes we just have to.
