Early motherhood is not as warm and fuzzy as the media tries to make it out to be.
Sure, you have this beautiful little baby, but damn if it isn’t incredibly hard. Postpartum product company Frida Mom made a beautiful commercial highlighting the struggles new moms face. They understand the importance of being honest about motherhood, and they did it so well. In the ad, a new mom wakes up because her newborn is crying, but first she must use the bathroom.
That’s why the Frida Mom ad is so important. Man, I wish I had someone at the time who would have told me the real truth. Everything hurts — peeing requires a squeeze bottle and witch hazel pads. I didn’t tear, but something the size of watermelon did come out of my vajay, so there’s that. And holy fuck, trying to poop is a nightmare. My overconfidence got the better of me, so I always tell my friends not to stop taking the stool softeners, no matter how good you feel.
If society allowed raw honesty about motherhood, those early days would feel way less isolating. So many of us are out there thinking that we’re the only ones struggling. There are so many problems we could solve if we begin portraying the early days of motherhood the way they are — really fucking hard.
