I am NOT a rapper but this was so funnn! Over this journey of being a new mom I’ve come to learn that no matter how bad you wanna get back right, you can’t force the healing process. In the beginning I was so frustrated cause I just wanted to get back to moving around and going to my old routine. I could barely walk hell I could barely stand the first few days after giving birth but I kept trying to push it. Little did I know this would be the underlying cause to a week full of mental breakdowns at 4am. I had help and I’m so thankful for everybody in my support system, but I was still struggling. Yaya is officially a month now and although I’ve learned so much and we FINALLY have a solid routine I’m still struggling in some parts. That’s completely normal. It’s his first time alive and my first time being a parent. Give yourself grace. Take some time to yourself (even if it’s only when you shower). Every single day from when my baby was born to till the day I die is a cycle of trying my best and giving myself grace when I feel I’ve fallen short. To be a parent is healing. #healingchallenge
