Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing great. It's me Julia again and welcome back with another story for today's blog. I want to share with you my journey through being a mom. We all know it's not easy just like being carrying them for the ninth month. Seriously? Definitely yes! But hey hey hey wait, remember we are superwomen, right? So, let's dive into my story without any further delay.
Let me tell you that as a first time mom here, I was not able to experience that my mom was beside me through my pregnancy journey. So not having my own mom close to me was very hard. I could only talk to her on the phone asking for guidance but sometimes I was so tired and busy so I can't really talk to her. Every single night, I have been scanning online and searching for tips on how to take care of my baby just like how to help them sleep through the night when they were about three months old.
It was really tough and there were lots of times when I cried because being a mom felt so overwhelming. My baby would cry a lot and I had no idea what to do. Thankfully, I found some amazing online communities where other moms shared their advice and tips. It was like having a virtual support group! They helped me with things like how to proper for breastfeeding, changing diapers, and keeping my baby healthy. With that, I learned so much from them.
I also started a bedtime routine to help my baby sleep better. I'd dim the lights and make things quiet to signal that it was bedtime. And in day time, I'll make sure that there's a noise background so that he knows that it's still a day time. I even learned where to buy diapers for a big discounted price and thanks to the help of those online friends.
But even with all this help, being a mom was still really tough. One of the hardest times was when my baby got really sick with pneumonia after just three weeks. It was so scary! Luckily, my partner had health insurance that helped cover the costs of the doctor check up visits and medicine. But even with that help, I felt so alone and scared. I wished my own mom could be there to help me through it.
Despite all the challenges, I kept going. I knew I had to be strong for my baby. I spent many nights taking care of my baby back to health and slowly but surely, he got better. Looking back on that time, I'm so proud of myself for being able to get through it. And I'm so grateful for all the support I had from my online friends and my partner.
Speaking of my partner, he was amazing during that time. Even though he had to work at night, he still managed to help me out. He always cooks foods for us after his shift and helps with house chores around the house. He even take care of the baby so I could get some rest. He's been my rock through it all and I don't know what I would have done without him.
On his days off, he spoil us with treats and bought things for the baby. Seeing him with our little one filled my heart with so much love and gratitude. Having him by my side through all the ups and downs of motherhood has been such a blessing. He is even such an understanding man despite that I was depressed at that time. And even though being a mom is really hard sometimes, I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. I love my little family more than anything, and I'm so proud to be a mom.
So, cheers to all the moms out there, you're doing an amazing job! 🥳 Whatever struggles in life, we just keep pushing it through.
And with that you came to the end of my blog. I hope I inspire you for my journey as a mom. Thank you so much. Stay tuned for another next blog!
