Mom Shaming
Imagine being so excited to be a mom. You're pregnant, you're glowing. You're ready to have the amazing little human you're growing in your arms and with you to love and cherish forever. (If yours went this well. My pregnancy sucked and other people also ruined it for me).

Work Until You Succeed, Then Keep Working!
I know a lot of people want to succeed in life. I mean, come on! Who doesn't?! We all want to succeed at something in life. Personal goals, financial goals, business goals, and whatever else you can think of. I have many, many goals for myself this year. I can't wait to challenge myself and make those goals become a reality in all aspects of my life.

No Parties Over Here!
One of the biggest things I have noticed: How much unwanted advice you get when you become a parent. Now I understand a lot of people will give you advice in about every single thing you will do in life, but there is nothing that annoys me more than when people try to tell me what I should do with my kid. Especially when they don't like what we are doing.

New Mom Life 101
This is something that was a huge issue during my pregnancy. Everyone always made pregnancy sound like such a beautiful and glowing time. Which, don't get me wrong, it is beautiful. We are creating another human being. That being said, that glowing and such was a load of shit. At least for me it sure was. Being pregnant was the most miserable nine months I have ever endured. I started from the time I took the pregnancy test. We were trying to get pregnant.I knew the day I went home from work sick that was the day I should have gotten my period, so I knew exactly what that test would read when I got home. I was nauseas and thought I was going to pass out. And the sickness didn't go away for a long, long time. Then after that it was constant exhaustion and hurting feet. A lot of that was probably my fault, I didn't slow down after I found out I was pregnant. We live on a farm, so there is no slowing down for me. The animals are mainly all mine, so I don't like to put the burden on Ty to take care of them, especially when it comes to milking the goats. Thankfully he helps as much as he can, even when I am not too excited about it. Thank goodness because I was on bedrest for a few weeks because our baby tried to come six weeks early.

I am writing this both to vent my heart out and prepare new moms for things that you really don't think about being a problem until it is one. I am also writing this with uncensored, raw emotion and no holding back.
