How did the postpartum period affect your sense of self and emotional well-being?

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a bit about my postpartum journey and see if any of you have had similar experiences. Becoming a mother has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. The shift from my individual identity to my new role as a mom has been both beautiful and challenging. I've gone through a whirlwind of emotions, from the pure joy of holding my baby to moments of overwhelming anxiety and even some postpartum depression. Balancing these feelings with changes in my relationships, the pressure to "bounce back," and figuring out work-life balance has been intense.

One thing that has helped me immensely is finding support—whether it's through friends, family, or online communities like this one. Sharing our stories and coping strategies can make such a difference.

I'd love to hear from you: How did the postpartum period affect your sense of self and emotional well-being? What support systems and coping strategies helped you the most during this transition? Let's support each other through this incredible journey! 💕💕
