MOM HOT TAKE: the hardest part of motherhood…

The hardest part of motherhood isn’t the diapers, the tantrums, or the sleepless nights, it’s everyone else acting like they’re in charge. having a say in how you should parent your children, when they have NO idea how they are at home.

relatives, friends, strangers, social media “experts”all judging, all unsolicited. it literally NEVER FAILS.

are you breastfeeding? are you formula feeding? have you done sleep training? if you discipline you’re too strict. it literally doesn’t matter, you’ll get talked about either way.

two under two? congratulations, now double the chaos and double the judgment!! trust me i would know 😮‍💨🙃

you’re not just raising kids, you’re raising kids while fending off the world’s opinionated commentary. and the kicker? the kids don’t care about any of it. all they want is you!! exhausted, messy, imperfect, but present.

motherhood isn’t hard because of your children. It’s hard because the world refuses to let you parent in peace. refuses to let you do your own thing. and they’re always so quick to pass judgement. and some of them aren’t even parents yet 🥴

Yes!! I just had a mom bully me bc i am not going to drink raspberry leaf tea. Not everyone has the same birth. I also talked to my specialist so that is something I can’t take. I do know 2 people that did drink it. One had a good experience and the other did not. Even on this app some of the comments I read just shocks me
