Wow I really needed to hear this 🤗 I find myself always planning or thinking of how to improve the situation with my little one and when the reality - aka the now - does not fit my plan I become sooooo angry or feel like a total failure of a mum… Often in these dark moments I long for my pre-mum life 🫣 Thank you for this piece of writing! I also read motherhood by Lisa M before becoming a mum… I probably could use a re-reading 😉

Thank you so much for your response and for reading! Great to feel like I'm not alone - and honoured to know my thoughts on paper (or screen) help you feel the same!

Definitely worth the re-read. I'm ordering her next book, Vital Spark for sure! :)
