Explanation!

I feel like I owe you guys an explanation for my silence, I haven't been posting for a couple of reasons. For starters motherhood is the most amazing thing you can ever experience, I am loving it. 

One reason I haven't been posting is because motherhood can be quite busy at times, my hands are always full. Either I am feeding my baby, playing or putting it down for nap which will only last for about 15-20 min. In that short period of time I try and get as must done as possible, sometime it's the only time I can run in for a shower so when she's up we can head out. And other times it's to cook, clean, eat, organize or just to take a mental health moment of silence and relaxation, something to reboost  my energy so I can be hands on when my baby's awakes. 

Not an excuse not to post, I can sure sit on my coach while she's playing and type up something. But I love playing with my baby we get hyper together, I dance and sing and she just laughs at me. She loves my attention, I almost feel like it's rude of me to be sitting there on my phone and not giving her the attention she deserves. I feel like I'm ignoring her, feel like a bad mom. I always see these videos of how to put down your phone and interact, so that what Iv been doing.

I actually have a few post I wanted to share but I just never got around to posting them. I guess I can do them at night, that's how I'm getting this one done, but some times I just go to sleep with my baby and I'm sleeping before 10.

Another reason I havnt been posting is because Iv actually got some really funny feed back by a fellow followers. I received an anonymous message on how my blog is hurting people. She stated how this is way to much of a sensitive topic for many people and can cause a lot of jealousy and self hatred. And I should not be posting this so openly when some people would do anything to be pregnant. She said how some post can sound like I'm complaining (which I probably was) and it just doesn't seem right to complain when people reading it can become envious. 

This women probably has a story if her own or noes of someone that was reading my blog and was feeling hurt how it's unfair how she can't get pregnant. 

I was very taken back by this I would never want to make anyone feel that way. My blog was to show awareness of those who are pregnant that what they going through is hard but yet amazing. I understand how it can be hurtful to people but I would like to think that it was doing more good then harm. 

I'm kinda in a funny position now do I continue to try and post or forget about it because of the few people I'm hurting. But at the same time so can any blog be hurtful, a fashion blog can be hurtful if those with not that much money can't afford to buy such trend cloth, or that many cloth. Or how about for the people who have certain body types that the cloth just won't fit on them, couldn't that cause lots of jealousy as well? Even the good blogs, I'll be honest I wish I can cook those three meals a day. And to have a protein, vegys and a starch at dinner is amazing Im lucky of I have two if those options on my plate. I really don't enjoy cooking and I don't like it even more when it takes more then give minutes to make. I'm truly amazed at the food blogs on how they get it done, I'm not jealous but some people might be if all they have time for is take out twice a week. 

For all my lovely followers message me on Facebook or can email me atchumyherman@gmail.com for ideas, or solutions to do about my blog. Also send feed back or story's, I love reading about what people think and are going through. 

Maybe I'll just continue on Instagram and Facebook with pictures and status. 

Let me know!!!

Happy motherhood!!
