I push myself over my limit to be perfect because I'm afraid of my partner's reaction. Even when my child falls (because he is learning to walk now), my stomach crunches and my first thought is a fear of his reaction, and the second is the safety is my child (whom I love and care for dearly, but falling from time to time must be normal at this stages and beneficial for his development). I will listen to the audiobook, i hope it covers cases like this when the high expectations are generated (on top of what I already have) by someone within the family.
A husband should support his wife as she becomes a mother, in any case, he definitely shouldn’t provoke fear in you. I feel like that’s a BASIC premise, the bare minimum…
@@luciadejoncheere7978Your comment is absolutely correct. I'm only commenting to introduce thoughts about people who are divergent or suffered with critical parents: for these hyper vigilant people, even innocuous jokes or commentary can feel like immense criticism and trigger intense physical sensations of inadequacy,, shame and guilt.
Kudos to you mama! Sounds like you're doing a great job and baby is hitting his milestones. Separately on your partner - don't internalise his feedback, respectfully ignore that man. His natural instinct as a man is to protect the child but it sounds like this is coming across in a way that disempowers your freedom to mother. Maybe see a counsellor because these cracks widen over time. Wishing you the best x
Lovely video. I’m just so surprised that when the concept of running the home being a full time job was discussed, that the mother staying at home wasn’t explored? It’s so hard for Men to share this mental load as we are just skilled so differently. Let’s embrace this wonderful motherhood, running the home and caring for our families! Our children and husbands will be so much happier with a relaxed and unburdened Mother/wife ❤ I speak to so many women coming to the end of maternity leave and the huge majority do not want to go back to work.
Another wonderful conversation Mo, I had no idea about how much being a parent was going to change my own identity, my career and my sense of myself. So great to have this topic covered, looking forward to the book.
This was such a beautiful and wise conversation. My children are now teenagers but to have validation and explanation for so many situations and feelings I went through when I first became a Mum was wonderful. I cried several times. Thank you both 😊
I went searching for more in this podcast and it says hidden videos not available in your region, so sad, I wonder what I am missing to learn about, knowing is purposely hiden... No wonder I live in a third world country

I'm a SAHM. I have zero motivation to go back to work ever. I've been working since I was 9. I'm in my 30s.

I almost sent a voicenite. Lol. Yo, this episode was so...real. It was like giving me permission or validating how i really feel.
I don’t think anyone, degree or not, should tell any woman “how she should be” after pregnancy. To say we change is enough.
I wish we had this information in Spanish, no one talks about it
I could not find you video from channel 4 that had tens of millions views nor the 37 translations of your book SFH !!
Laura doyle s book is life changing for marriage
