New Moms Open Up About Unexpected Parenting Challenges in Wholesome and Supportive Discussion

Hey, all mommas- new mommas, seasoned mommas, mommas-to-be. We all have preconceived notions of motherhood derived from how our own mothers raised us and the stories they tell us, from the experiences of our friends relayed to us over coffee catch-up sessions, from 90s sitcoms, and from all the parenting magazines, books, podcasts, and Instagram accounts that claim to have all the knowledge we seek to prepare us for child-rearing. No child or mother is exactly alike and so no strategy espoused by a relative or info-graphic is guaranteed to work - in fact, the only guarantee is that you will be surprised by something. In a supportive and wholesome internet discussion, new moms confess what parenting challenges caught them off-guard the first (or second, or third) time around. Read below for relatable stories, sincere confessions, and helpful advice from mothers across the web.
