When should your baby have his or her first bath? 🛁

Showing up for yourself daily does not equate to selfishness, rather living every day aligned with your needs and nurturing and loving yourself first gives you the emotional and mental fortitude you need to support your baby and family.

Preeeclampsia or “toxemia of pregnancy” is a complication associated with significantly high blood pressures in pregnancy and the postpartum period. It is not a joke. It is a real problem that can cause significant damage to vital organs such as your heart, lungs, kidneys and brain.

The fourth trimester can be a time full of uncertainty. One way to maintain your wellbeing is to practice self acceptance. Validate your not so positive feelings by consciously recognizing that the fourth trimester is difficult and it is affecting you. Accepting your feelings with compassion gives you the space to work through them instead of expending mental energy convincing yourself to feel differently. You are not alone in this space, mama!

We are all so very flawed, even the person that seems so perfect and has it all put together is flawed. Motherhood uncovers new flaws and magnifies them in a way that nothing else in life does. This gives us all an opportunity to learn to love ourselves even deeper and has the power to pull us closer together as mothers striving for the same common goal. You, my friend are perfectly imperfect. Love yourself today.
