Becoming a Calm Mom Book Review

Leave a Comment on Becoming a Calm Mom Book Review

I was browsing Pinterest sometime before Kason was born and I came across this book called “Becoming a Calm Mom.” I felt like it was something I needed in my life. I was worried I would be frustrated with a newborn and upset with how things were going to be from here on out. I’m …

  • Man, where do I get started with our current infertility journey? And do I even want to share? I do want to share, but I’m scared, and maybe that’s all the more reason to share?🤷🏼‍♀️ . I’ve had my period since about 4 weeks postpartum. We’ve been trying to get pregnant ever since. The only thing we’ve ever wanted was to grow our family and it’s taken way too long. . I reached out to our NaPro doctor again. He gave me a list of things he needed from me before we could have our next appointment. . I’ve been on supplements (a lot of them) since I gave birth to Ethan. But after reading “Ended Beginnings” I learned that those experiencing grief may not be getting proper nutrients even with supplementing. So who knows if what I’m taking is actually working. . I had a Mercier therapy session to hopefully get rid of some endo/scar tissue after having Ethan. And I definitely noticed a difference with my cycle after. I may do another one in a month or two. . As of right now I’m starting fresh with a new cycle ahead and hopes that we’ll be able to get pregnant naturally again soon. Because we aren’t doing IVF!
  • It’s PCOS awareness month. I love this shirt that I designed for a gal who has PCOS. These were the words that she felt like described her while dealing with PCOS. I think we can all relate to these at anytime in our own life. Got to persevere, have courage, optimism and strength! What other positive words would you use to describe yourself? . This shirt is in my Etsy shop and I have other colors!
  • I remember like it was yesterday. I remember where I was and how I felt. I was concerned because my cousins lived in the city and I wanted to make sure they were okay. Now I get it on a different level... there were so many people who experienced loss that day. Loss of a child, loss of a relative, loss of a family member, loss of a loved one. We will never forget. #remembering911
  • I did not think I’d be here without you 5 months ago. I’m trying to remember all the details of what Ethan looked like. He has Chase’s nose, ears and toes, and has my lips. Every day I wonder what it’d be like to raise 2 boys and what Ethan would be doing developmentally if he were still here. Thinking back on Kason, Ethan would already be rolling over, holding his head up and smiling and laughing. Definitely missing him a little more today. I’ve been trying hard to get to know him little by little without him being here.
  • Every photo I see of us as a family I always imagine holding another little hand and when I look at these photos I remember that our family is missing one special person. It breaks my heart to go on adventures without Ethan, but I know he wants us to still be happy and remember him. . Loss doesn’t just go away - it never will. From April of 2020 to forever my little boy will be missed.
