I've been trying to do everything myself because I felt like I should be able to handle it. Today I finally accepted my mom's offer to come over and help. She held Sophia while I showered and napped. Game changer. Don't be like me - accept the help! 💚

I started seeing a therapist for postpartum anxiety and it's been transformative. I was so anxious I couldn't sleep even when Harper slept. Learning coping strategies has made me more present and patient. No shame in getting help. 💚

I'm 2 months in and still feel like I'm drowning. Everyone says 'it gets easier' but when? I love Emma more than anything but I miss feeling like myself. I miss sleeping. I miss having a conversation that isn't about diapers. Please tell me there's a light at the end of this tunnel.
