Nothing can prepare you for motherhood... No amount of books, forums and chats with friends before baby arrives will prepare you mentally and physically for the journey you are about to embark on. It's instant, from the moment the little one arrives and is plonked in your arms, it's a 24 hour 7 day a week commitment, unpaid, no holidays and very rarely includes a uninterrupted break... Motherhood has already taught me so much patients, It's the hardest yet the most amazing and worthwhile job I have ever had and its only been 6 weeks! It's shown me a completely different side to my husband whos already the most beautiful human, he's such a selfless, compassionate and caring man who adores me and our little man... Zaki is honestly so lucky to have him as his dada. ❤️ I'm sure most woman that go through pregnancy and motherhood feel the exact same - I honestly feel I could make millions if I wrote a book about the stages of pregnancy, birth, postpartum - all the stuff no one ever tells you about or things you wouldn't even consider.. - be that positive, negative, hilarious or heartbreaking... It would be the best book ever! It's a whole different life and one as mentioned no one could ever set you up for... It's certainly the most rewarding thing I have ever experience in my life, the hardest too! However... I am truly the most content and happy I have ever been, not just with our miracle boy but in myself, my body and marriage and I will forever be in love with how amazing womens bodies are and the capabilites we have to withstand anything we put out minds to... 💪 📷 - A few nights ago - running on maybe 1 hour sleep, exhausted because zaki had a bad night with his tummy (now diagnosed as lactose intolerance) there's something so beautiful about these photos I had to share - You can see the sleep deprived mama trying her best to stay awake and care for her baby and yet you can also see the complete love and happiness that he brings - Somehow it's just so perfect. 💛 We love you our sweet boy Zakariya Mansoor 💙 #babyalbaali #babyboy #octoberbaby #babyspam #6weeksold #babyofinstagram #baby #motherhood #mummyblogger #truepurpose #truelove (at Dubai, United Arab Emirates) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH8wE7VDoSM/?igshid=1it1ub3i6r9ap
