Raw and unfiltered motherhood

A picture unlike all the others I’ve probably ever posted. This is the real me. Tired and a hot mess 99% of the time. No makeup, no filter, the same pajamas worn 3 days in a row, just raw motherhood at its finest. Benjamin was in the bath but he’s usually glued to my hip. And Emi has been extra clingy too, hence the wrap she’s in. This is me, drowning in diapers and chaos everyday. But would I choose another life over this? Never in a million years. ❤️ if you are struggling with postpartum depression or anxiety, it is so important to talk about it. To anyone that will listen. Being stuck in the house with two kids all day with no other adults to talk to, can really bring out some darkness in a mother or father. No matter how strong you may think you are, it’s okay to feel defeated and tired. At the end of the day what’s most important is that your tiny humans are alive and happy❤️

**EDIT: this is not to scare any new moms or moms to be. Just spreading awareness that pp depression is very REAL. And to show that my life is beyond picture perfect from all the cute pictures I post of my kids. 💕 everyone experiences postpartum differently, this is just a glimpse into a day of my life.**
