Motherhood

ALL THE POSTS ABOUT

I recently shared to Instagram stories about my youngest skipping a nap (and what that felt like for me), and then last week I saw a few others sharing their reactions to unexpected changes to daytime sleep too, which had me thinking: why is a baby resisting, skipping, or taking an extra-short nap so triggering or anxiety-producing?

As a new mom, I didn’t know how to open up about my rage because no one else was talking about it. I kept it quiet, simmering under the surface and felt so much shame any time it bubbled up (and sometimes out) in a way that didn’t align with who I wanted to be or who I believed myself to be before having my baby.
