Motherhood with Carla Majeno

My name is Carla Majeno. When I was almost 18, I had a plan. I knew how everything would turn out and as long as I stayed on this path everything would be great because it would be according to plan. Everything changed when I found out I was pregnant. I spent countless hours on YouTube looking up videos of pregnancy and what it means to be a “mom” and felt like I needed to know everything in order to be prepared. However, as much as I planned, I realized that nothing really ever goes to plan anymore… and that is okay. Motherhood is a journey and it’s not one that can be planned and pinpointed every step of the way. Truly, just being along for the ride is one of the best gifts. We stress out and spend so much time thinking about the end result, we always forget to enjoy the journey. I started blogging shortly after Zoe was one. At first it was to help me cope through my mental health and to also talk about things I had learned and what I wish I had known beforehand, but it turned into so much more. I realized that motherhood and life as a mom is not always easy or fun, but always beautiful, and I want to share that on my page. I want to spread positivity to mothers and show them how beautiful they are and how powerful motherhood truly is.
