🌞 Embracing Summer Ease in Postpartum 🌸

If you live in the True North (Canada) like me, you know wintertime can be challenging for a variety of reasons. Icy sidewalks, dressing the baby in the correct clothes/layers to go out, super short days, vitamin D usually going down.

And you also know how happy we get when the snow disappears letting spring and then summer take place.

So.... Can the postpartum period be easier in the summertime? YES!

Summertime + postpartum = a winning combo!

☀️ Here's why:

1️⃣ Longer days = brighter moods
2️⃣ Outdoor escapades = soothing vibes
3️⃣ Comfortable summer wardrobe
4️⃣ Nourishing seasonal produce
5️⃣ More bonding opportunities with loved ones

Let me know in the comments if you will have or you already have a summer baby 💖

Remember, every postpartum journey is unique. Embrace the warmth of the season, cherish the moments, and let summer breeze through this precious chapter of life.

You've got this! 💛🌻

🦋 💭Quality time x quantity time

I know we want to believe sometimes that the quality time we spend with our kids is enough to get to know them, and to get know how to deal with the million demands they have.

But I would risk saying that there are so much missing if we don’t realize quantity time is essential most of the times to really get to know them. Kids usually don’t show clearly what they need right away (talking about deep feelings) they have their time..

I woke up questioning myself if I’m always ready to invest my time (the time I have) getting to know them, on their time, in the way they want to show themselves to me.

I’m not saying you are doing something wrong if you don’t do that, or trying to put in a place of “feeling of missing out” but I believe parents need to always question themselves to be able to be better as parents too.

Parenting is usually “hard” if you are thinking intentionally about how to be a better parent for your kids.

If you read until here, thank you. We are together on this journey of non-stop learning.

Have a wonderful weekend.
