OH MY GOD!

By    April 18, 2021 // 1 comment


 

O. OH MY GOD!

Oh My god! I am a mother now is such an influential book in which the author, Abinaya Vijaykumar has talked about how a new mother deals with emotional trauma. Here, I'm with a few points which I wanted to convey to a new mother. 

Relax! Feel blessed that you’re a mother. 

BE PROUD.

 

Obey all the rules

 

They have programmed us from childhood days that we should listen to our elders and obey all the rules. But the time has changed now. Today’s generation Parents are smarter. Here, I am not comparing the parenting styles. Instead, our parents did the best in raising us up, but now today's parents have their parenting style raising the kids. Though they don't believe in obeying all the rules as set by the elders of the home. But they believe in living their life more practically. They believe in doing what they feel is right for them and their kid. They are self decision-makers.

What do you think? Is it necessary to obey all the rules once you enter into motherhood?

 

Organize

 

Is it important to be organized all the time? Undoubtedly, it helps us stay organized well. But hold on! Take a breath. We all know u have so many pending tasks like household chores, cluttering wardrobes, washing clothes, office work, and other new daily assignments. When you have a toddler at home, no matter how hard you try. No matter how much effort you put in to keep things organized, but yes! It's ok. Let them explore things. Let them create the mess. The home can be organized anytime, but their toddler time will never come back. So don't pressurize yourself much and just try to relive the moment again with your little one.

Thank God! I am a mother of a happy toddler.



OMG! oh my God


Oh No! I just kept everything at the place. Oh, no! he did potty again, I just cleaned it up. Oh, no! the baby is not sleeping. But why? Oh shit! Baby has created all the mess again. 

Such questions arise in a mother's mind when she loses her cool. Those who have kids at home can relate to me very well. But oh my God! I am a mother. Give me the power to deal with everything. 

 

Occasions

 

Being a new mother, you will be excited to dress up your kids according to the occasion. But don't forget yourself, meanwhile. Buy a dress of your favorite color and texture, etc. which will suit you the best. It'll not only make you happy but boost your self-confidence too. A Little self-care shouldn't hurt.

 

Overwhelming

 

We feel overwhelmed when we look at the face of your little one. How innocent and cute my baby looks. But kids are smarter than us. They know the technique to get their work done quickly. Even if it is by crying or showing anger, etc. we parents get melted with their innocent actions. Here, I would like to share this advice with new and first-time parents, don't feel overwhelmed and try to solve the problem in parts.


What advice would you like to share with other new mothers?

Reliving the Childhood Memories

By    April 14, 2021 // 17 comments



Reliving Childhood Memories

The moment I wake up in the morning, the first glance I have is at “my beautiful princess face”. The moment makes me feel lazy to get up, so I want to keep cuddling and giving her more hugs. OMG! she behaves like me, who used to sleep only by the fragrance of the mother who’s just lying beside me. 

Do you miss your childhood days? The days full of innocence, kiddish act, stubbornness, and what not? We can't go back to our childhood days, but we can re-live those similar memories with our little ones. 

I can recall all those moments when my mother tried to wake me and my brother up. But our father was always by our side and asked her to let us sleep for some more time. The same is happening with my daughter now. Kids are so lucky in this case. Kids are carefree, stress free, no workload, etc. That was the best time of the childhood days. 

 

Once we grow up, we live with our daily routine, meeting deadlines, stress, overthinking, planning, etc. My 2 years toddler never fails to entertain us except the days when she is not feeling well. She keeps on doing such activities just to make us laugh and assures that we’re responding  her back. She makes everyone sit together, eat together, dance together and play together like ring-a-ring- roses where everyone is taking a circle and following all the rules. 

 

There comes a time when we try to match her latest pics with our childhood pics. I enjoy the moment  when my husband says she is like her. And, I interrupt in between to make sure that her habits are like mine. This moment brings us back to the old splendid memories. Along with that, my in-laws also shares their childhood experiences and we spend quality time all together.


I want to capture the moment and get it framed in my heart forever or just by getting a picture clicked. Not only me and my husband, but the grandparents are also reliving the moment again. Kids are the stress-buster and they're truly god’s blessings. “The way they approach us, the way they find the solace by making an eye contact, the way they make us realize that we’re everything to them.” 


Especially during the lockdown, we’ve used the best time spent with the family forever. And I would like to thank my daughter for entertaining, understanding, co-operating and just being with us. I want to say this to my princess, the best time in the entire day is the time spent with you. I feel disheartened when I ignore you sometimes because you know, Mumma has so much pending work. But Don’t stop making the moments to cherish forever. Here're a few recommendations on games that family members can play together like Chess, Carom Board, Cards, and others. 

A few other recommendations to play with a toddler along with the family members are like Bowling set, Basketball, coloring mat, and puzzles etc.

Any mother would agree with me that "The natural state of mother is unselfishness". She is the kindest person on this earth. As we all know about Mother Teresa, known for her kindness. We should learn to be calm and be kind to our kids at every stage of their life.

Don't forget to share " How do you show kindness to your kids"?

I love you Mom

By    April 10, 2021 // 18 comments


 
I love you maa, not for who you're but for what you've made me. - Radhika

I love you Mom


 (Heartfelt gratitude from a daughter to her mother)


I miss you every single second MAA just after the moment I have become a mother. It’s been two years of my motherhood journey, and I realize I respect you more than ever before. You were always right “ Maa banne ke baad hi, Maa ki feelings samaj aati hain”. Now I listen to you more deeply, now I focus on your words more, now I want to talk to you endlessly. Now I understand and appreciate each effort you have put in upbringing me, brother. Not only this, you are a multitasker who manages the house and maintains relations with love and kindness. There’re so many things I want to imbibe from you. A few are like honesty, patience, selfless attitude, and what not?

 

Now I realize how difficult it is to become a mother. My roles and responsibilities towards life have been increased. I am sorry if I’m not able to talk to you when you need me. I’m sorry for not visiting you. I miss our chai gossip time. Hahaha !!! I know you don’t like chit-chatting over a cup of tea. I understand, it takes a lot of effort, discipline, and patience to raise a kid in all aspects of life. 

Today’s generation is so busy and a little selfish, we often forget that with our time and age, our parents are also growing. We should spend enough time with them to cherish the moments of life.

 

Itna sukoon aur kha milega , jab maa kehti hain “kab aaoge milne beta”

I sometimes wonder how you could manage everything so well. Now, seriously, I admire you. I respect you for being the CEO of our home. You made me realize earning is not everything in life but self-satisfaction is. You taught me, we’re nowhere if we don’t value our relations. 

 

“Kabhi-2 dil bhatak jata hain Maa iss ajeeb si duniya mein,

 bhag padti hu sabko dekh kar unke piche,

unka jaisa banne? Unki tarah,

 jinko khud ka hi khayal nahi,

Mana ek pehchan banani hain mujhe,

aapne bhi naam kamana hain mujhe,

Lekin woh pehchan mere apno se toh upper nahi,

 tab tumhari sikhayi hui baatein yaad aati hain Maa”.

 

I wanted to pour out my feelings for you by this blog. I can list an unlimited number of things that I have learned from you. But I want to ensure that I'll put in my best efforts to walk on the path which you have shown me. The two most important are “ value relationships” and “never forget to love yourself”. Now I know what's best for me. 

 Thank You Maa!

5 Things You Need to Stop to Be a Happy Mom

By    April 07, 2021 // 16 comments

Being a mother is not a one-stop destination. but it's a journey. We learn to explore many things with our experiences. There are a few things that you must ignore for becoming a happier mom. Here I'm with a few suggestions which can help you in being happy.

5 Things You Need to Stop to Be a Happy Mom

1. Stop doubting yourself

We all understand that you’re new to your motherhood journey. But trust the journey of motherhood. Have faith in god. God has already given you the power to be a supermom and raise a super kid. You just need to wear the crown and walk like a queen. A mother puts in all the effort while raising her kids, and that's appreciated. 

2. Stop comparison

Each child is unique and has a set of qualities. So, isn’t the mother? A mother also has her style of raising her kids. We’ll be talking about different styles of parenting in the upcoming chapters. No one knows better than a mother how to deal with her kids, what do they want, etc.

3. Let it go

People will always make a statement whether you’re doing your best. They always have something to say. A few people don't want to see you and your kid growing, they feel jealous. But let this not affect your inner voice of a mother. It all depends on you how you respond to it. You can always take suggestions from others, but your heart knows the best for your child. Do you agree? You can practice meditation to learn the art of letting it go. It’ll make you feel calm and more confident. Let your child also know their mother is the strongest.

 

4.   Stop feeling lonely

A mother becomes over-possessive when it is about her kids. But don’t let this make you feel arrogant or misunderstood by others. Don’t be restricted to the home, kids, and household responsibilities. Starting socializing with other mothers is a great way to learn from each other’s experiences.

5.   Stop worrying and start living

One understands that it’s your life. It might be a long time that you might miss your ‘old self’, the dress up, the happy you, and the confidence you, etc, but now stop pleasing others. You need to set “me-time” and do what you love the most. You need to set your priorities, but the first priority is you. Make a list of the things you always wanted to do. Set up your day well to keep things organized.

 

So, Mumma!

 

What’re you waiting for?

 

Don’t Stop loving yourself.


Do what makes you “to be a Happy Mom”.
