If you ask any mom what the biggest barrier to taking care of themselves is, I bet 95% or more would say “I don’t have enough time”. Between bottles, loads of laundry, daycare drop offs, meal making, and finances, (or…

Grateful. Joyful. So many happy emotions have come with this news. About 5 weeks into this pregnancy, it got wild. I'll spare you all of the not so appetizing details, but there was a lot of nausea, a lot of puking, blood tests, hospital visits, iv hydration infusions, mono (yes, MONO, like a 16 year old). There were weeks that I left the bed only to puke and pee. It's the longest I have ever been sick.
During this time I really fought the tension between totally opposite emotions. Joy and pain. Happiness and frustration. It was weird to feel so happy and so sad in the exact same moment. We feel so blessed and grateful to have another child on the way. And at the very same time, I'm not sure I have ever felt so lost, broken, and frustrated in my entire life. I am thrilled to be over two weeks without puking (who knew that would be a milestone?!) and this weekend I jumped back on the Peloton for the first time in a loooong time. Slowly, I am becoming myself again.
Please know I do not share this news of our pregnancy lightly. I know so many women that yearn to be pregnant. The road to motherhood is entirely different for everyone and every pregnancy. I am thinking of you and praying for you, whatever stage of the journey you are in.
