From Snapping Out of It to Admitting How We Really Feel About Motherhood

Thank God for Warrior Moms who share their pain and confusion with others, so that we might all know that we are not alone.

This is a very brave post from Beyond Postpartum about what it's really like to be a mom -- how we thought we'd feel and how we often really feel but don't want to admit lest others think we're bad mothers...

The mom at My Journey Through Postpartum Depression writes about how people who have never had PPD just expect us to "snap out of it" ... Grrrrrrr, that makes my blood boil ... let's reach out to her a give her a Warrior Mom Virtual Hug ...
