Tips to not loose yourself in motherhood

To the struggling mom who finds herself thinking, “this mom thing is way harder than I thought,” I’m right there with you.

I am having way more bad days than good ones lately and to be completely honest, I have some days where I wish I could just stop being a mom for a while.

THIS TOO SHALL PASS

I’ve heard these words a lot and read about how this simple phrase has helped other moms get through some of the bad times and I get why. At a time when I want to break down because I’ve had too much, I want to remember these words because I know it’s true. Everything eventually will pass and us mom’s are much stronger than we give ourselves credit for.

CONSTANTLY PRACTICE GRATITUDE

This is something I used to consider myself pretty good at. I pray every morning when I wake up and every night before I go to bed and the first thing I pray about is how thankful I am for the people and the things I have in my life. I noticed, though, that I’ve been praying more out of habit instead of genuinely feeling that gratitude.

I know I have a lot to be grateful for, I really do. I don’t mean to sound incredibly negative here but I thought it was important to share how frustrated and overwhelmed we can feel as moms too. I’ve just been so caught up in the stress and the chaos of life with a baby and 3 rambunctious boys , that I’ve forgotten how much I really should appreciate what I have.
