When baby boy goes to daycare around 2yo or when I can afford a part time nanny, I’m going to go back to school to become a Mother-Baby Nurse and full IBCLC ✨
My PP experience in the hospital was horrible partly because the Mother-Baby Nurses just didn’t seem to give AF. I follow a couple on IG and seeing how they spoil their patients and are attentive to them lights up my soul.
I want to be that person. I want to bring you a mama mocktail and get you a bag full of everything you need before you even realize you need it. I’ll ask you if you want help learning to use your pump (if you have one). I’ll ask you your goals for the day and I’ll make sure we do it (ie taking a shower, which I was too scared to do after my C-section in the hospital).
I’m going to buy a workbook or something for the maths that I’ll need to know when I start the program. That’s my biggest mental hurdle - just telling myself I CAN do advanced math and I am smart enough for it.
Kevin is supportive of me and I want to cry because my dad told my mom she was stupid for wanting to go back to school … he ended up being the short sighted one. She should’ve gotten that degree. And I won’t make the same mistake. Even if I become a nurse at 35, that could be a wonderful 35 year career.
It’s not too late ✨
