Happy Mother's Day!!!
Whether you're a mother or not, take some time for self care today.
I was reminiscing with a friend about the time that she gave birth and the whole experience of mothering since then.
She went on to say how being a first time mother was daunting! How much doubt can come about because you just really don't know what to do. The baby has no verbal communication and you can only try and guess at best what it is they need. Not being able to put the baby down in case and all the other bits and pieces you go through mentally and physically.
She reflected that someone just saying 'you're doing a good job!' makes the world of difference. In a time of self doubt and uncertainty, a kind reassuring word can lift you up no end.
Although, we would ultimately teach you to be as self sufficient as you can and keep telling yourself how well you're doing. A little bit of support from good people can make the world of difference.
Seek out people who are good feeling but most of all, be kind to yourself! Cos you're with you 24/7and that is the most important relationship of all!
All is well!!!
Happy mother-ing!!!
Lots of love, Nick Xxx
