When I became a mum I sought out reassurance from other people because, deep-down, I didn’t believe I was a worthy mother. Here's how I embraced self-acceptance
Our allotment allows us to get fresh perspective on the stresses of life; from sleepless nights to endless washing, everything seems easier when you’ve spent time outdoors.
Breastfeeding didn't come completely naturally. My mother told me that it would take three hard weeks of painful, sore nipples until it became easy. And she was right!
Sharing the childcare equally with my partner seemed fair and meant that we would both get to bond with our daughter and get to see those wonderful baby and toddler years.
By using the compassionate parenting techniques I can help my anxious daughter feel safe, regulate her nervous system and learn the tools she needs to face her anxiety.
