Okay.

I just wanted to... Beautiful.

Well done.

We're both in a silly mode.

But now I'm serious.

Okay.

So I just wanted to come on and have an honest, give an honest update, honest, just checking on how I'm feeling.

Okay.

because I'm very conscious that if you follow me on social media, and I also know and I understand why this is because I've done the same thing, but a lot of people that are at the same stage postpartum talk to me a lot in my DMs as I talk to them back because it's like we're in the same regression, same stages of the baby's life, et cetera.

And I've spoken a lot about how much I have loved, and I do love motherhood so very much.

And the first three months of Atlas's life was just so special.

So, I mean, it's all been very special, but that newborn phase, I really loved.

I loved so much more than I thought that I would.

Also, it depends on your baby.

Like he was a really chill newborn.

And I think because I loved the first part so much and I've spoken so much about that.

As he has gotten older, where now he's now almost six months old, which is wild, I have started to struggle a little bit.

And I feel like I have been maybe pushing it to the side because I keep telling myself like...

Number one, I feel like the more months you get postpartum, the less grace you give yourself.

And I'm finding myself starting to be like mean to myself in a way of being like, like this morning as an example, I slept in because we were up quite a bit last night.
