Postpartum Bath

I tore only on my right lip during childbirth.

No where else, and it wasn't stitched.

But let me tell you, it hurts and burns like hell.

This bath helps. Mama tush sitz bath.

And an added bonus, skin to skin breastfeeding with my 5 day old son ❤ I'm loving every second of being a mother (maybe a little less at 2 AM)

Being a mother means self discipline, it means giving up everything, it means forgetting about your needs and pain (like childbirth aftermath) and focusing on the most important thing in your life.

I hurt so bad. Body aches, bruising, tear, milk coming in, zero sleep, and headaches.

But you know what? That's all worth it to see my sweet babies face every day and night.

Who cares if I have to wake up at 2 AM.. 3AM.. 4AM and so on... I get to see his face. And that is love. ❤️

Happy 5 Days Old, Lucas Matthew. I can't wait to see what the future olds for you ❤
