Mama Blog

I felt the need to have a place to blog about this mother adventure that was separate from Callie's blog. I have been amazed by this roller coaster the past 7 weeks, some of it amazing some of it heart wrenching. One of the hardest things for me was that I felt that motherhood was so idealized and romanticized that when I struggled with breastfeeding or dealing with the tears I felt like a failure. But when I opened up to other moms about it they all nodded in agreement and shared their stories. And that was so surprising to me, that we all go through the same drama but don't necessarily open up about it unless someone else will admit to it.
I hope to be able to write and process it here. Stay tuned for the mama drama!
