“Being a woke mama means understanding the reality that my daughter is her own person while also connecting with and nurturing all of the parts of her that make her who she is. Soleil is raised knowing that she is a brown girl, she is strong, brave, beautiful and most of all intelligent. I make sure to raise my daughter with awareness, love and respect for everyone that she encounters and to me, that is the true foundation of being woke” . By our new gorgeous #WOKEMAMA Afrika 💓 . Full interview on the blog . LINK IN BIO☝🏽

Are they happy? Are they loved? - We all already won ❤️
3 things I've learned since i stopped breastfeeding my toddler ONE WEEK ago: 1. It's hard. There isn't much support on the usual gentle Facebook groups, cus if u stop before 2yrs ur made to feel like the bad guy. 🤐 But don't ever feel pressured into stopping, it's not worth it. 💆 If i had a choice I would have continued - life would have been a lot easier. Sigh. . 2. You get the blues. HARD. Nobody talks about the hormone cold turkey that makes you depressed/hateful/angry/hopeless. Yay, more guilt. But it passes. Oh and don't wean on holiday unless you have no neighbours cus you'll be having a lot of 3am tantrums and prob swearing a lot. Having partner around helps tho. And 🌞🌴🍉 . 3. The replacement hugs are next level.. iyra has never been cuddly, but oh boy, i'd die for these all night love squeezes. ❤ Nothing replaces the oxytocin filled feeds, 👀 smiling at each other (and never hearing crying cus boob is on stand by). But being appreciated for my magic non-milk comfort skillz is swell. 👏🏼 I feel like we know each other even better now.👭 . While I wish we could continue feeding and will next time - and big up all who do!!!😍 - don't beat yourself up if pain leaves you crying in agony (or however else it comes to an end). U did the best ya could!! . BFFs don't have to BF forever. 💘
🥂 sunnier days 🥂less clothing 🥂easier boob access!!
Happy Birthday Grandpa!! 🎈🎂
“Seeing my child smile, letting her thrive the way she wants to not to suit my schedule or needs. So that her personality can shine through” . Meet #wokemama Jen and baby Esme. . She speaks to us about career changes, mum guilt and Beyoncé! 😍 . ☝🏽LINK TO FULL INTERVIEW IN BIO☝🏽

Real life
💔 Next level bitter sweet life moment ahoy: i think iyra and me had our last breastfeed this mornin under the coconut trees, watching the tiny orange birds. 🌴 We both knew it. It's been a sad, painful, crazy story so will blog on it soon.. But either way, there is no better place on earth to celebrate new ways to love each other than on this wild, peaceful, paradise island. 🌞 Can't stop crying.. feels like the end of her baby/toddlerhood! But I think some tears are happy for our new life. Who knew stopping could be so emo?! Anyone else in same boat rn? Argh. 💜
👨‍👩‍👧 Baby Irie, Cle & Lammy have only gone and packed up their things to travel around Mauritius for a month! 🇲🇺😱🙌🏽💓... *twiddling thumbs* ...

Have you become someone who burns inside like a witch when someone else’s child reaches 😲😲😲 a milestone before your child? . "If you answered yes to all of the above then you might just be reaching dangerous levels of motherhood extremism." .

"A year ago, a family hired me as their birth Doula. The mum’s waters broke, but she wanted to stay at home and wait for contractions. I supported her. . "When she arrived at the hospital the risk book was thrown at her and the family ran with that fear. . "I didn’t even attend the birth, but was scapegoated for “what could have gone wrong”. . "The birth ended with a healthy baby, yet the family were considering seeking legal action for a birth I didn’t attend. This is the power of fear!" . Meet @_Jojodoula - live on the blog! 👆♥
