The New Me: Finding Myself in the Chaos of Motherhood

The other day, during one of my mama chats, a fellow mama said something that struck me deeply.

They say it takes nine months to grow a baby inside you — and then, after they’re born, nine months for them to grow outside, learning, discovering, and becoming their own little person. It’s a beautiful way to express the idea that the postpartum period is a significant transition, mirroring the length of pregnancy itself.
