My second son was hospitalized...

And for several months after, I became very fearful and doubted myself.

Sep 23, 2023

😢📌 I had such a stressful orientation week, except that I got flowers, and had so much to eat,🍔🍔🌮🥙🥗 which kind of made the stress worth it.

As I was thinking of how much I had to eat this past week, during the orientation,

I remember how my second son could not eat.

I watched my very chubby son, grow thin.

So thin,

that I could see the vein in his stomach area.

I watched my happy son, become sad.

So sad, that he would cry for hours non-stop.

There was nothing to placate him.

Nothing to make him stop.

My baby was sick- because I was trying to do everything right.

He was not only sick-

he had tubes and syringes constantly piercing his skin.

He was not only sick- he had a breathing machine on him.😭

📌I was broken- scared-afraid-and clueless.

📌I was a very terrible mother, I said to myself.

📌But no one told me that I would make mistakes as a mom.

📌But no one told me that I would screw up sometimes.

📌But, my pain would have been easier, if I had someone looking out for me.

📌Someone, constantly in my corner, telling me what to do.

📍Well, may be I thought paying a consultant pediatrician for a monthly or bi-weekly session was expensive.

⛔️But more expensive-painful-heartbreaking-and traumatizing- was the fact that we ended up paying 10X what could have been paid, if we had a retainer, or a monthly access to an expert.

⛔️You will fail terribly in business, thinking YouTube videos will offer all business lessons.

⛔️You will also feel like a scam, when you call certain prospects, and they ask you questions like: “are you sure your system works?” and they you ask: but the youtube video said…?

⛔️You will feel deeply hurt, when you begin to get rejection emails from schools even after paying application fees, because you were trying to pay less- and do it your way.

⛔️You will feel like a fraud.

⛔️You will doubt yourself.

⛔️Believe me, if there is one thing I missed in my past childbirth experiences: HAVING SOMEONE WHO KNEW IT ALL IN MY SPACE.

And as I plan for more children (yep- twins!!! 😄💃🏾ha-ha) I will never put myself in that position.

✅ I will pay for all the support. For all the life coaching, cos I would never shortchange myself.

✅ I know a human experience makes all the difference!
