The Postpartum Guilt Trap: Am I Failing God by Not Overflowing with Joy? | Episode 20

from Postpartum Reframed; Your Guide to Biblical Joy · host bradstreetandco

Are you secretly struggling with postpartum guilt, feeling like a "bad Christian" because motherhood feels more exhausting than exhilarating? When the pressure to be perfectly content collides with the raw reality of hormonal shifts, sleep deprivation, and overwhelm, it’s easy to wonder if your lack of constant happiness means you are failing God. In this episode I’m talking about feeling guilty and wondering if you're failing God when you don't feel joyful in the postpartum season after you prayed so much for this baby. Scripture References (all NKJV): Isaiah 40:11, Philippians 4:4, Philippians 4:6, and Romans 8:26 Thank you so much for being here!
