Sometimes, we have to work our ways through an incredibly difficult time. And even the happiest of events can be difficult sometimes. But these pains often go unspoken – one mother, Australian Storm-Manea Ellyatt, didn’t want to be silent anymore.

“All those cute bonds ads, miniature Nike shoes, adorable baby shower gifts, baby spam on Instagram, squad dates with your mum posse and those god damn laceylaners lied to me…

Not once did I see an ad with a mum locked in her cupboard crying in her leaked stained pjs from three days ago, covered in sweat and vomit, praying to every god imaginable for the strength and patience to go back… The once calm, poised, patient goddess, who could sling cocktials, swear with sailors and dance uninhibited until tomorrow afternoon, can bearly hold a conversation, hold her eyes open or the tears back from this new found ‘bliss.’

Cheers all you amazing parents that dust yourselves off and do it again… with the smile of a thousand curse words, shattered souls and hopefully a strong coffee or wine in hand.”
