 Why do so many women struggle as new moms?
As a motherhood counsellor, I’ve noticed that it’s an especially big challenge for those women who have had successful careers and then in the blink of an eye (AKA many, many gruelling hours of labour ;) become stay-at-home moms, either on maternity leave or long-term. As a successful career-minded woman why is it so difficult to transition to being at home with your baby and to really, truly enjoy it?  Do you ever feel confused by all the opinions and ideas about how to raise your baby?
When my first son was a newborn I had my nose buried in baby books and websites trying to figure out How to Be a Mom and I was completely and utterly overwhelmed!!  Many of my clients tell me that relationship issues are a big part of why they are seeking out counselling.
And it makes perfect sense- you now have a little person figuratively (and often literally!) right in between you and your partner. |
