Before becoming a mommy, I was just a wife! Now I'm a wife to my husband and a mommy to my child! You know now that I'm a mommy I didn't take anything for granted when I was just a wife. But being pregnant change your life, but having the baby here with you changes not only your life, but your spouse and your schedule as well. Before having our son, my husband needs would come first such as making his breakfast and coffee before he leaves, than having dinner ready for him when he comes home from work. After having our son his needs would come first before my husband and even mines, and I felt like I was failing as a wife(darn hormones), but the wonderful husband I have was understanding and not only I was new to this but he was too. Now almost 7 months in being parents I have learn two very important key words for my mommy and wife title, and that is balance and schedule! I have manage to balance the mommy and wife and schedule things such as when my son wakes up hungry in the morning I will feed him first, than get breakfast and coffee ready for my husband. During the day manage to take care of myself, clean, and pay attention to my son and have fun with him, once dinner time comes around if my son is napping I will start dinner and do little at a time while still taking care of my son. At times it's not easy but as long as my son is happy and busy...we are good to go! I have also come to accept that if dinner is not ready right when my husband walks in it's ok because it will be ready in no time and I didn't fail as a wife!!
My husband is happy, my son is happy and I'm a great wife and mommy and didn't fail!
You know being a wife and mommy has been the greatest blessing to me, and I have would not have it any other way!!
Life is good!!!
With that being said...please share
Do you have a schedule in your household? How did you balance mommy and wife life? Did you ever feel like you fail as a mommy and wife?
