Some said motherhood is hard, and yes it is true to the highest level. But if you want to be a responsible mother everything can be learned especially now that we are already in the digital era, where we can find some answers easily from the net and we can learn new skills just by watching video guides.
When I got pregnant, I was not ready. I even cried a bucket of tears because I don't know if I can be a responsible mother since I grow up having low self-esteem and a lack of care from parental. So I don't have any idea how to take care of a child properly, as I also suffered unfair treatment in the house.
Motherhood can be learned, If you want to
When I was still single, I am also very lazy I woke up late and eat late as I am very lazy to get up. I cannot even fix my bed properly, as I leave in a boarding house, I was very untidy lol. I am lazy to the core that even combing my hair is so damn tiring lol.
I wasn't ready to be a mom
My pregnancy was unplanned, I and my partner are not ready but despite the uncertainties, I never harmed the baby and continue the pregnancy. I even talk to her inside my tummy that she should get out healthy, pretty, and with complete body parts so she will not be bullied because the world is harsh!
When she finally gets out, I don't even know how to hold her properly. She's not comfortable the way I held her, she always cries and only stops when her dad will be the one to carry her.
My motherhood capabilities got tested
When she stop breastfeeding she became a pink baby, she got sick easily. My motherhood capabilities were tested when she was hospitalized and became antibiotic-resistant. Nobody can help or suggest to me what should I do just to avoid her getting sick so often.
I did my best and research a remedy to cure her illness and her antibiotic resistance. Gladly I found solutions to the problems. It's a moringa leaf blended with pure honey, it cures her cough and colds, boils, tonsillitis, and her antibiotics resistance problem or any bacterial infection. It also strengthens her immune system.
Until now she doesn't get sick easily and I don't have to spend a lot on her medication because I used herbal which has no side effects.
I observe others how they raise their kids and I also reflect on how my mom raise me
In raising her, I just observe other people how they raise their kids. I observe their negative traits and try my best to train her so she can avoid those traits, especially tantrums. I also reflect on how my mom raises me, I applied those that have good effects and try to avoid those who harmed my growth.
I also read some parenting guides.
I am clueless about how to be a mom and wife but I think nailed it 🤔
I was trained by my mom when I was a child how to do household chores as I was the eldest daughter, although I was lazy when I was still single I never forget her teaching. So I know how to clean the house, and wash laundry properly.
In terms of cooking, I also don't know how to cook but by reading recipes I can cook dishes well.
I've learned to find tricks in everything I do just to finish my task easily because until now I am still lazy, I just work smarter not harder.
Closing Thoughts
Motherhood is tiring and hard but it can be learned especially when you are in a situation where there is no turning back.
Motherhood is a lifetime responsibility and you can learn to master it in a lifetime, Mothers are not perfect, we commit mistakes as well but we can always correct them.
Thank you for reading!
