Bienvenidos Mamitas y Papitos ❤️
Welcome Mamitas and Papitos ❤️
I am pleased to once again make an appearance by this warm and friendly #motherhood community to talk to you about my experience before having my baby Maximiliano. It is very emotional and special to me among all the initiatives I have been able to participate in on this platform, as I am a 24/7 mom. I am constantly learning and I love being with my son at home watching him grow healthy and strong even though I end the day super tired, I wouldn't change a second of this whole process called "Motherhood". Sure, I miss the days when I could take a bath and do my hair and nails whenever I wanted but here we are, living a chaotic but completely wonderful parenting life.
Mi vida antes de los niños: ¿qué es lo que más extrañas?
My life before children: what do you miss the most?
As I mentioned earlier, I miss bathing and getting ready when I want to. Now I do it when I can. If I want to do my hair now I have to do it at the end of the day when my baby is asleep, my husband supervises and I have space to myself. For the last few hours of a very busy day, I think a thousand times to take time for myself because of the extreme tiredness I have. My body cries out for rest but my self-esteem tells me: You can do this and more, make yourself pretty! I'm not always dressed up. I even had super long hair and loved it, but I cut it off because I wasn't spending the time I needed to. It was just right and necessary. My hair will grow back but my son will be a baby just one stage of his life and I would never miss it.
Another thing I miss is my body before I became a mom. I didn't have the fittest or toned body in the world, I'm not curvy either but I really liked my body. During the last trimester of my pregnancy, I noticed that I started to get stretch marks in the area from my hips to my lower belly. I didn't pay much attention to it because there was no cream or oil that I didn't use to take care of my skin. But my baby was very chubby and my belly was pure boy.
At the beginning of the postpartum period it was hard for me to look at myself in the mirror and recognize myself with the belly I had after the cesarean section and when I only thought I had stretch marks on my lower belly and hips, it turned out that I also had many around my belly button. I had a few days in shock assimilating my new body. I was back to my original weight by the time my baby was 5 months old. Even though I was consistent with all the stuff I bought to avoid and diminish stretch marks, they took over me. Although it cost me a lot, I learned to love them and so did my husband. From my body emanated the life of the one who is today the light of my eyes and is the reason why I find in every day my supreme happiness. I love and accept my body today and I am happy with it.
¿Qué fue lo más grande que tuviste cambiar en ti (además de convertirte en mamá/papá)?
What was the biggest thing you had change in you (besides becoming a mom/dad)?
I think the outings where I shared with my husband. We like to go out and visit new places in Tenerife. I even made a list of them to cross them off. I have visited several places but I still have a lot to see. Tenerife is a huge island and has beautiful landscapes ❤️ that invite you to dream and love mother nature.
Now it is much harder for us because my husband is the only income coming into the house. We are a little tight, but we are always making ends meet. As a family it was important to save every penny before the arrival of our son but these diapers, vaccines that are not subsidized by social security and thousands of products that we try and change because they do not fit our baby; these savings have been allocated for this cause and now we rarely go out to treat ourselves because our responsibility as parents lies in keeping all the needs of our child covered. Understand me, we don't mind because we are very homey and we like the comfort of our home but we would like to be able to go out to dinner to rest from time to time from the kitchen and the four walls of our home. It is important to recreate ourselves so as not to fall into monotony.
¿Cuál es la única cosa de la que tal vez me arrepiento o desearía haber hecho antes de ser padre? ¿Qué desearía haber sabido?
What is the one thing I may regret or wish I had done before I became a parent? What do I wish I had known?
I don't think anything. I feel that when our baby is older I will be able to take a job so I can be another help to our family. With another paycheck at home, we could go out a lot more for recreation, see those places on my bucket list and take the baby with us to make memories as a family. We don't have our own car but we know our way around public transportation. We manage well with our household bills to make ends meet and so we go.
I am also very grateful to my friends who are new moms. The truth is that without them and all the information I had to process during pregnancy and postpartum, raising my baby would not have been easy. I was able to detect growth spurts and crises early enough to understand why my baby was behaving in a certain way. Although it was quite an odyssey, I managed to take it very calmly and for a person who does not handle stressful situations very well, I managed to come out of it very well. I am infinitely grateful to all those people who gave me help and a helping hand when I needed it and still do. Just when I thought I was entering an unknown world and was full of uncertainty, your advice full of tact and love was very useful for me to face motherhood with the best of energies. I am at peace with myself and thank God for every guided step where I raise and educate my son with love. Just look at the picture below and see the smile of my son, for her I am capable of everything and much more.
