No matter how many times you may hear these things, they simply are NOT true. Had a C-section? You are a warrior. Didn't instantly bond with your baby? Totally normal. It will happen, in time. Breastfeeding is hard AF! Some people may have to exclusively pump. Some may have to formula feed. Who cares?! Fed is best. Every kid is different. There is no way to know exactly what to do in every parenting situation. Unfortunately, there isn't a parenting manual.
In this episode, we're discussing the "baby blues", postpartum depression, and all the feelings that contribute to that feeling of "mom guilt". Motherhood is hard! It’s not always glitz and glam. Don't feel guilty for having a bad day or week.
