Definitely Not Easy, But Worth It Blog #330 August 13, 2022 *Being a mom comes with great responsibility.* As I become a mom, things become tougher and harder especially when it was my first time being one. Sleepless nights because of waking up to feed the baby, and changing his diaper were one of the struggles after giving birth. As a first-time mom, I also experienced being paranoid. Countless times I always look and check if my baby was still breathing. I can't sleep peacefully knowing that I had a little one beside me. Now that I saw my babies growing up, I can't help but reminisce about those times when I'm struggling to wake up every night to feed them, taking care of those times when they get sick, and having hard times thinking about what food to prepare on their first months of eating solid foods, guiding them as they started crawling and walking, and bringing them to the center for their vaccination was also a struggle to me. Seeing them crying because of the pain they were feeling when the needle pierced into their skin was one of the pain that I'm also sensing. Looking at their face crying hard made me want to let them be just at home and never mind the vaccination time but I was also thinking that those vaccinations were for their sake so even if it pained me to see them crying, I still brought them to the vaccination venue to get their vaccination completed. Being a mother is one of the hardest jobs for a woman yet it's also the best job that we have. Pains, struggles, hardships, worries, and many more are felt but it's all worth it when seeing our kids growing healthy, happy and most of all growing as good youngsters. There may be times that we want to give up because we felt tired of doing our responsibility over and over again but seeing our children give us strength and motivation to continue fighting for our lives and our kids. I may become a mom at a young age but I will never regret being one because having them taught me so many life lessons, they made me a tougher woman and they made me the happiest mother. Since I was a teenage mom, my kids now seem like my siblings only. But one thing that I dislike in this is when people won't believe that they are my children. When we were going outside and people would see us, they would really ask questions about my relationship with them. And just yesterday as I was buying the terno pajama for the kids, the seller asked me the same question as what others asked me. When I told him that they are my children, he replied that it seems not. He commented that they seem just like my cousins or my siblings. I just zip my mouth and paid him then said thanks and walk away. **I may not be a perfect mother to my kids but I know that having them in my life will always motivate me to be a better "mama" to them.** **I am a mother of four and I'm always proud to be one. It may be difficult but I know things will be conquered as long as I have them "my children" who are my source of inspiration and motivation to keep going in life.** That's all for today! Happy Saturday everyone!

Tinuod gyud sis. Makaparanoid jud kaayo bitaw labi na jud kung magkasakit ang mga bata.
That's why I always admire every mother out there, kase I know na once you become a mother, your whole life will be committed to your child. And I'm proud to you ate kase I know that you did your best to become a mom🤗
Aw, thank you so much Mayiee... Totoo talaga yan. Pag naging nanay, mas uunahin na yung kapakanan ng mga bata kaysa sarili.
Cguro sis mukhang bata ka la kaya ganun
Hehehe, ewan ko sis.
I can understand that because I have seen my mom working hard to maintain the family and taking care of the whole family. She did never ate in time but prepared food for us in time.
That's what mothers are. You're mom is a supermom.
Being a mother have the countless responsibilities. In that case I appreciate all of your efforts being able to cope things hardly.
Yes that's true... Thank you so much!
the reality of life must be faced even though sometimes other people's views are different but it can be an aspiration for young mothers.
I can't relate because I don't have kids and choose not to have one. And yeah you look young but it's not a big deal. For me it's a compliment. And I agree that mom's job is the toughest because you have no off and it's a lifetime.
Being a mom isn't easy, I know how hard it is but watching them grow and healthy makes us proud to be their mother.
True sis. Hindi madali maging isang ina pero makita nating malusog lang sila, masaya at proud na tayong mga nanay.
I agree sis. Motherhood is by far the most fulfilling job. I'm not a mother myself but I know from my observation that motherhood is a roller coaster ride.
It really is sis. Grabe jud ka challenging ang pagiging inahan.
Kakayanin talaga ang lahat para sa mga anak. Being a mother may be a challenge, but at the end of it all, it's worth the sacrifice. 💗
True. Challenging kaayo pero worth it naman tanan nga kalisod ug kasakit.
Dli ko karelate aneh sis bah kai wala paman gyud ko kasulay Nah magiging nanay, pero kung about sah pag atiman sah baby grabeh naagian gyud nah naku tanan, grabeh gyud kalisod pag atiman gyud,huhu.

Thanks for being a loving and proud Mama. The great care you have provided will not go unnoticed. Life works in cycles one day your children will take care of you when you need it. Take the comments by others referring to your children as siblings as a compliment. I enjoyed reading, take care.
Thank you for this wonderful comment from you. I'm touched reading this. Thank you and you take care too! Happy Sunday!
