Hello Gorgeous and welcome to Motherhood! The most challenging role of your life, but some of the most purposeful work also! It’s time to embrace the new normal! You’ve got a new baby and a new body and so much changing in such a short time! Let’s get real for a second! It can take MONTHS to start feeling like yourself again, after having a baby. I don’t mean, “I can go in the closet and fit a pair of jeans” type of feeling. I’m thinking more along the lines of, “I can look in the mirror and see that I’m a badass”, type of feeling. There are so many moments when you don’t really feel like you’re killing it. It hedges more on the side of “Yay! I kept people alive today.”
Motherhood can sometimes feel like you’re trying on a rubber suit and it’s on fire! Just kidding! Here’s the thing about transitioning into motherhood. The sooner you can embrace who you are now, and not mourn the woman you used to be, the better! You don’t think the same and that’s an asset. You relate to others differently and that’s a strength. You’ve literally sustained a life inside your body and outside of it and that makes you a total BOSS!!
Why Not Celebrate Your New Amazing Identity
The more you embrace all that comes with motherhood, the sooner you’ll fall in love with the woman you’ve become. There’s not need to mourn the woman that was, because you are still her, but with new and exciting experiences! You’re her, with a whole new love! You’re her, but with new amazing skills and gifts. Celebrate the new you with a Motherhood Session!
When I think of a portrait that encompasses strength, wisdom, beauty and love all at once, I think of a mother and child, together. There’s no denying the impact that it has on a mother or the value as that child continues to grow. So if you were on the fence about whether or not to take the leap and book a photo before everything gets “back to normal”, then listen to a mother who knows….you’re already in your new normal and NOW is the time!
