I'm so happy you shared this! I think a lot of ppl can relate. I'm going to have my baby in June and I'm terrified. Loss of identity is my biggest fear and something I hope I can work to regain after the baby. I think having a supportive partner and family is so crucial and changing expectations for a little while. Life is gonna change drastically but it's all about how you choose to go about it..and the support u have that determines how u feel and how things go. I'm also very active and definitely not a home body..so I hope I won't just be stuck at home for a long time cuz that would make me depressed. I plan on taking the baby out with me for long walks or hikes. And maybe just chill at the beach since it will be summer. I dunno...I think the first month is gonna be a write off for sure. I want to think that I'll do all these things with the baby..but I can imagine it won't be easy. 😅
We can all lose our identity wether it be through pregnancy, or maybe the loss of a child or just as we get older and that is what I am dealing with myself I am getting older I have always put myself and my needs on the back burner because I always felt like my two boys needed me front and center at all times which caused me to lose myself and to stop caring about self care which like you I have always been an independent woman and as a Registered Nurse it got really really hard but I am now starting to put myself first sometimes and especially doing things that make me happy inside and out. I think we all as women have been here and we all feel differently about how to go about working on “Self” it’s great that we have a community here on your channel where we as women can build each other up instead of tearing each other down my word for this year is “Progress over Perfection” and to always “Be Kind” because we never know what that person maybe going through! You look beautiful Nish and I know you are an amazing Mum Lola is so blessed to have you as well as Ash you guys are doing awesome! 🙂
This sounds so lovely, I’m glad you got back to yourself! For me it’s different because my very loving, supporting husband works 8 hours away and for the time being (due to my school schedule and baby) we have to live apart. Which means I’m the one and only caregiver and that leaves no space or time for anything else. What I want most is to get back to the gym but I’m using every babysitting minute for school and homework so that’s out of the question……anyway just venting here but thanks for the video!
Unfortunately, the media and all the pathetic celebrities and wannabees show motherhood as absolutely glamorous and glam. I mean seriously plllllease stop glorifying as its easy and nothing to worry about!. It is we need to let women speak up, many suffer in silence. Motherhood is sometimes absolutely terrible. It's not because women don't love their own flesh but it does totally change you physically, mentally, emotionally and psychologically. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️For all the mothers going through tough times.
With the Corona virus lockdown , I am beginning to feel like I've lost myself a bit, self-isolation and not being able to go out as much. It was good to hear you, your strength inspired me to focus more on me too, at least by doing the small things one can do to lift our spirits. Thanks Nisha! I missed your videos, I used to watch you religiously, esp your hair videos- I learned how to use my hot air brush watching your demo of the Babyliss brush :))
This is something most people do not talk about but it is super important for young mothers to realize that if they feel these feelings it is not unusual. When I had my child 41 years ago no one spoke about feelings. Young mothers feel overwhelmed but are afraid to say that they lose themself in their babies and that having a baby is a very big deal because so many people have been having them for so many years and nobody ever said that it was a difficult thing to do. It is a very rewarding thing to do but losing your identity for a while is very scary. Thank you for your great post this would have helped me a lot 41 years ago
Oh my I really feel like this. Hi sorry I’m new to your channel and I just had a new born like 5 months ago. I really feel like I lost myself. I have two daughters and yes I know I’m not alone but sometimes it’s good to get out and remember who you are
I had my youngest 9 months ago, my self confidence has plummeted.. I have never weighed as much as I have now, I’m also still retaining water😢 I needed to hear this. 🫂🫂💗
Looking to help my wife out. This video has helped me establish a good base for helping my best friend get back to her normal self!
This is so lovely to hear
That is so sweet of you to do this! 😭😭😭😭
So thoughtful ❤
That's so cute xx
I miss how I was before my daughter my depression comes in waves I’m trying my best to manage it 😢

I got a bad haircut at the end of my pregnancy and i can’t go swimming this summer because of healing up from postpartum and having a 1 month old
