“You don’t have to pretend with me. I am your safe haven.”
“It’s NORMAL to feel lonely and unfulfilled, tired and frustrated, but you don’t have to put up with it nor stay silent.”
“These women know me better than some of my own family members. We’ve had our ups and downs, but there is nothing we wouldn’t do for each other.”
“I have finally learned to let go of all the things I can’t be anymore.”
“Eventually, my heart began to beat on its own again. I met my daughter for the first time two weeks after delivery.”
“You don’t know a mother’s challenges, strengths, weaknesses…her life. You don’t know any of it.”
“So next time you see a breastfeeding mother, I challenge you to buy her a drink, or offer her a comfortable place to sit, or simply tell her how great she’s doing.”
“There’s a saying that goes ‘Do what you love and love what you do.’ To me, that means chasing babies around while my floor is scattered in Candy Land pieces while PB&Js wait in the kitchen.”
“This simple hack was initially time consuming, but it saves me time, frustration, and space in the long run.”
“I will always be the lady whose baby died. I am okay talking about that. Are you?”
