Leave New Moms Alone

Maybe it is because I’m young but today while reading through my mom groups on Facebook, I saw one about shaving/showering and how often every mom did it. Obviously every mom is different and has different amounts of children and time but this was a stay at home moms group and every comment (200 of them) was about how they never shave or hate shaving and showering, haven’t showered in weeks, no time, too tired. I just don’t get it. Like I have stated in past posts, you put your kids first but how can you when you feel like a bum? I would feel disgusting. I enjoy pampering myself. Masks, shaving, picking my face into oblivion, serums, moisturizers, nails and toes. Brushing my hair and teeth and changing my clothes daily is a must. I don’t want to feel bad about myself when I see myself. I see myself as a young and sexy mom and my fiancé is lucky to have me. I definitely want him and want him to think I’m sexy. He wouldn’t care if I was gross and or not every day but I feel like it’s just nice to be smelling good and looking good. In conclusion, I really just think you shouldn’t let your relationships go on the back burner. It was us to start so I’m not going to stop how we were before because we have a child? We love messing around with each other and acting like weirdos all day. I just feel like moms can’t handle the change and being so different than they once were so they stop caring. I loved how I was before and in my opinion I was 10/10 and after birthing my son, I still am. I’m not going to let being a mother and the changes change who I think I am. I am the best and I have it tatted on me, lol.
