This is just a post to acknowledge the complex feelings that can be brought up on Mother’s Day for anyone affected by PP.

I want you to know that you’re not alone, that whatever you are feeling is valid and to remind you to be as gentle with yourself as you can.

Self-compassion is always a useful practice in times like these. Helpful resources can be found below;

Hello yougotthis1, what a lovely feeling, thank you for this. I resourced to some escapism today, and it was very welcomed. Take very good care,
