Nothing prepares you for becoming a parent.

You can talk to people you know with babies and try to come to terms with the idea of your life being very different but; when your baby is born, when hormones dictate your emotions, when you are recovering from the physical challenge that labour demanded of you and your partner, and when you are introduced to the concept of truly broken sleep, that’s when the reality hits home.

After your bundle of joy crash lands in to your world, some of the changes take a bit of getting used to.

The things I loved & didn't love in my first 6 months as a mum

Krystyna gave birth to her cheeky little boy in October last year. She is loving motherhood and relishing the baby related love and mothering accomplishments.

Reflecting on her experience of her first 6 months as a mum inspired her to write a post summarising the good and the bad to offer encouragement to new mothers.

She has kindly agreed to let me share her thoughts on my blog. So, Krystyna, over to you.
