Oh, the post-partum days!

Welcome to motherhood! That magical place where coffee is your best friend and leggings are practically a second skin. If you’re navigating these entertaining waters, mama, you’re not alone!
"Who needs a circus when you have a baby pulling off tricks that defy logic?"
In the first year of motherhood, every day is an adventure and a test of your sanity. You’ll experience an emotional rollercoaster of moments that are equally heartwarming and hilarious. From the first coo to the first steps, the milestones just keep rolling in like waves at the beach. And just like waves, some days you’re gracefully surfing through—it’s all balance and bikini-ready elegance—and others, you’re wiped out by a slobbery tidal wave.

By now, you’ve probably traded stilettos for slip-ons and wondered if you'll ever enjoy a hot meal again. Spoiler alert: you won’t, at least for a while. But each joyous milestone makes the cold leftovers and lack of sleep totally worth it. Just wait till you watch your baby transform from a squishy, cuddly loaf of bread to a tiny human with their own quirks and personality.
"Dive head-first into every milestone. It’s not like you have a choice!"
Ah, yes, the glorious six-to-nine-month stretch. Your little explorer is on a mission to get acquainted with life, one precarious crawl at a time.

Good luck with that!
Now, dear mama, can we talk about the unsolicited advice? You’ve heard it all—from sleep training your baby with Gregorian chants to baby yoga classes that promise enlightenment by the next nap. Spoiler: the book entitled "How to Raise a Perfect Child" doesn’t exist—trust your instincts and you’ll perform just fine amid this
