Mom Exhaustion & Love

Posted on Categories baby, motherhood, NYC, Parenting, Self Care

I heard being a mom was exhausting but I never could have imagined the constant underlying tiredness that is always chasing me. Even after some sleep it’s still there. Today I found myself daydreaming about taking the worlds longest nap- just sleeping all day. Oh how amazing that would be! But now Emmy is taking a nap (praying it’s a long one!) and I’ve had my lunch and what do I do? I look at her picture.

I’m a seasoned kids yoga teacher, photo-taker, video-maker and blogger. Most importantly, I am a new mom. I live in Manhattan with my husband Steve, daughter Emily Rae, and Rhodesian Ridgeback, Romeo. I started this blog when I was 9 months pregnant. I was gearing up for giving birth to my daughter in a way I never expected- a scheduled c-section. My first post was me coming to terms with delivering my baby in the way she needed, and letting go of the natural childbirth I had envisioned. The idea that some babies want to be “lifted into the world” is what gave me peace. And that is how the title of this blog was born. I have found pregnancy and motherhood to be a transformative, inspiring and challenging experience. My intention is to share my stories in order to connect people. I believe we can support each other by honestly sharing our joys and struggles. Let’s lift each other up!
