😠 Postpartum rage is real, and often overlooked.

It can be a sign of anxiety, depression, or trauma.

If you’re snapping, yelling, or always on edge—you’re not alone, and you’re not broken.

💤 Sleep isn’t selfish.

You can’t show up for your baby if your body and brain are running on fumes.

Sleep is survival. Sleep is sacred.

Wanting a break doesn’t mean you don’t love your kids. 

It means you’re human — and humans need rest. 🌙

 Let’s be really clear: Intrusive thoughts ≠ danger.

They don’t mean you’ll act on them. They mean your nervous system is overwhelmed.

You’re not broken. You’re not dangerous, you’re scared, and you deserve support.
