This pic sucks. Despite being in heaven 🌴🌞, it's the beautiful end of what was a horrrrrrific toddler weaning experience. Because when your milk dries up when ur pregnant, you may not wana stop but breastfeeding hurts LIKE HELL. And Google doesn't have the answers. . Hopefully if you're in the 40% of mums in a similar boat, my blog (link in bio) will help. 💗 . Warning, there were tears! And rejected cuddles. But true gentle parenting is caring for both of you in the kindest way you can. 👆 Read my post and judge for yourself what you'd have done. . And we may not feed all night anymore (which makes me want to cry with sadness), we bear hug all night. Which makes me cry with happy. 🐻 Cle x
Be this kinda mama. [Via the endlessly awesome and uplifting @dearyoungmum] 💜💜💜
Big up @the_fresh_dolls - representing African American, Latina and Middle Eastern girls 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 We need more toys like this on our shelves for girls and boys. Less plastic too, but let's pick our battles. 👭
"My proudest moment 👑 was succeeding in breastfeeding against all odds. My milk coming in on day 5 (I was never taught/didn’t read that it could take that long), cracked bleeding nipples, clogged ducts, mastitis, 😭 unbearable pain, being hospitalised after the mastitis turned septic. . "And repeatedly, REPEATEDLY being told to just give up and use formula (not that there’s anything wrong with that) 😔 it just wasn’t what I’d dreamed for myself and my son. . "Also after being medicated for hyperemesis during my pregnancy, and then undergoing a c-section, I was left feeling like my body couldn’t do anything the natural way. 🌳 So I was determined that my body was going to provide my son with breastmilk. . "And here we are still breastfeeding 2 years on, 💪🏽 my son is thriving, and I plan to let him self-wean on his terms." . 😍 Meet #WokeMama Remi - we're in awe of her physical and mental strength. Follow @mamaclog and hit link in bio for full interview! 💛🌈

"Raising a strong daughter who looks in the mirror and knows her reflection isn’t her worth. . "Bringing up my daughter to see her kindness and empathy as her strongest skills. . "We need to raise the next generation of children to take real action on the problems in the world. Teaching them to empathise, to share and that although they deserve the world, they don’t need to destroy it to enjoy it." . We loved reading about young, eco-conscious #WokeMama Ruby @yungmutha and how she is raising baby Maia to a strong independent woman 💜💜💜💜💜❤❤❤👭(link in bio!)
I don’t think you ever truly understand the value and luxury that is sleep, until you add some mini human beings into your life. . Most people know that newborns 🐒 are going to seriously impede on the amount sleep you can expect to get. 💤 Pregnant mothers are often advised to get as much sleep as they can during the later stages of pregnancy, as they won’t be getting much during the first nine months 😐 of Motherhood. Hahaha. Ha. . Realest sleep blog by #WokeMama Cherie @mymamamusings live now - link in bio 💜💤💤💤💤💤 [art by @rubyst]
😂😣 Serious tho, we need to talk about sleep deprivation. NEW BLOG 👉🏽 @mymamamusings Cherie writes: "Some days I don’t know how I function enough to parent.. . "Sleep deprivation can have an affect on your physical and mental health. 👃 ... I can also notice a clear distinction between the amount of sleep I get and my mood. . "I’m almost 10 years into this parenting gig and now I nap. Whenever, wherever." . New parents maybe avoid this one, but it's the truth! We ain't sleeping for the next decade. 😁😲 Rave on ✊🏼 [pic via @fourthtrimag]
Forever Monday. 😣
Meet beautiful #WokeMama Libby @youthfulmama 💚 who says: "Age is just a number and babies should be treated with the same respect as adults. . "Our experiences throughout childhood 🌳 are what shape us as an adult and if we are showered with 💜 love, kindness, honesty, compassion 👭 and understanding then we mirror that as adults." . Wise words! Hit the link in our bio for her full interview and follow her earthy wild insta 👉🏽 @youthfulmama 👑

"I think the hardest time was when my anxiety sky-rocketed during pregnancy and having baby blues after Ezra. . "Luckily I found some mamas on social media who experienced the same. I WASN’T ALONE ANYMORE." ❤✊🏼 . Word! Meet beautiful #WokeMama Selen @little_wild_olives - link in bio 🌳

It's liquid bloody gold. 😭 Q: How do you find pumping? And how are bottles working out for baby? Chances are it's a bumpy ride.. . "Because, to an exclusively breastfed baby, bottles are, simply put –weird. . "So it should come as no surprise that when offered bottles for the first time our babies will, sometimes, freak the F out." . #WokeMama Libby @honeysunnydays spells out why bottles aren't easy--but how they can work out if you werrrk at it. .
