Motherhood is an emotional journey filled with unexpected challenges. Maternal ambivalence encompasses a spectrum of feelings, both positive and negative. Cultural expectations often create unrealistic standards for mothers. The experience of childbirth can be brutal and is often not adequately prepared for. Breastfeeding challenges are common, yet not openly discussed enough. Mental health plays a crucial role in the parenting experience. Fathers are increasingly recognized as essential caregivers in the parenting dynamic. Societal norms around parenting need to evolve to support both mothers and fathers. Understanding the science behind parenting can help alleviate some pressures. It's important to redefine what success looks like in parenting.
