A Letter to My Future Self Before Becoming a Mom
Hey there, future mom,
Motherhood is a wild ride, isn’t it? You’re figuring it out every single day. I know that some days feel overwhelming, and you might find yourself lost in the hustle and bustle of daily life. Just remember to take a step back and embrace the bigger picture—reflect on the dreams and passions you had before your little one arrived. Time has a way of flying by, so soak in every moment, because these days will pass quicker than you can imagine.
Some days, I hardly recognize you. It’s incredible how you’ve transformed, but I see the exhaustion in your eyes. Motherhood has a way of shaping you into an even more amazing version of yourself—but it can also leave you feeling drained. Don’t forget to remind yourself of all the little things you do that hold your family together. You’re carrying a lot on your shoulders, but you’re not doing this alone.
There will be moments when you look in the mirror, and it’s hard to see the person you used to be. In those instances, remember to reconnect with who you are and the things that once brought you joy. Don’t let that part of you fade away.
Aim for balance, not perfection. You’re way too hard on yourself! Each morning, you wake up excited for what the day holds, only to feel let down when you don’t check everything off your to-do list. But guess what? Your family is happy and healthy, and that’s what truly matters. Take a moment to slow down and relish in the laughter, just like you did before life got so chaotic.
It’s perfectly fine to feel tired and to take a breather. It’s also okay to have fun! The late-night escapades may have shifted to cozy evenings binge-watching Netflix with your partner after helping your child with homework, but that’s part of the adventure. Embrace these changes and savor every moment, just like you always have.
Most importantly, motherhood looks fantastic on you. You’re rocking this new role, and deep down, you know it.
With love,
Your Pre-Motherhood Self
