Мамы, кто такая же? 😅

Highly recommend

Follow me .in.canada I don’t have a perfectly polished aesthetic, but my blog has soul — honest and unfiltered stories about first-time motherhood, relationships, immigration, and life in Canada.

How is this even possible? My 2-month-old baby acts like he understands what I’m saying to him.

What did you feel when your baby smiled at you for the first time consciously… or reacted to you, like they were answering you?

Как такое возможно, 2х месячный малыш как будто понимает, о чем я с ним говорю?

Что вы испытали, когда ребенок впервые вам улыбнулся осознанно или Дал какую то реакцию, Ответил?

Also highly recommend this machine for aaaaall mommies 😉

I feel guilty when my son is even without my attention for just 5 minutes…

And I realized why.

As a child, I didn’t get enough attention. I was born when my mom was 17. My parents were still kids themselves, often busy living their own lives. On top of that, we grew up with very little — there wasn’t an abundance of food, let alone toys.

Of course, I understand they gave me everything they could. But I still remember those moments when I felt their absence… and I think on some unconscious level, I now carry this fear of not giving my son enough attention.

That’s why I feel guilty when I go do my own things — whether it’s chores, work, or even just sitting on my phone. Like I constantly have to entertain him. And honestly, it’s not hard for me (at least for now 😁)

But at the same time, it feels like I’m running myself into the ground. I’m on maternity leave and I don’t even watch shows — I don’t allow myself to. I’m trying to do everything and more: build my blog, keep the house in order, handle the move, focus on my baby’s development… and in all of this, I can even forget to eat for the entire day.

That’s where I’m at right now.

How are you doing?
