Give Yourself Some Grace

Smart Mama, this episode is for you! Ellen and Laci dive deep into the issues of being a mom today. Laci discusses the recent birth of her daughter and the unique way she decided on her name. You are going to want to try this out when deciding the name of your next baby! Laci also opens up about her birth experience, losing 2 liters of blood, and calling in her own case to the OR. 

Is going from 1 to 2 kids worse or easier than 2 to 3? The ladies weigh in on their experiences and give us some great tips. Laci is still trying to find her routine with a newborn, while Ellen is adjusting to life back at work. 

We are all hard on ourselves and often fall into the comparison trap of who has it all together as moms. Don't listen to it! Go with the season and stage you are in with your family, and you will get through. Give yourself some grace, mama! 

Send us your messages or post in the FB group. We want to hear from you! Do you have a routine with your littles that works? Do you despise the thought of going back to work after maternity leave, especially during COVID?
