Welcome to Mothers & Mental Health, a safe space for mommas to share their thoughts and experiences relating to motherhood every week!
Every mom is different and I want THIS to be the platform that shows it. Everyone has a different story but we all share the role of being a mother. My goal is to get different perspectives on the subject of mental health and share stories from moms all over the country and if I’m lucky, all over the world. We must spread awareness. This is a place for other voices to be heard. A place for moms to support moms. I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed connecting with these lovely ladies.

Love the idea for this series! Even though I personally don’t have kids I know how difficult it is for mothers and there are so many stereotypes attached to being a parent so this is a great way to get people to see that it’s okay to be different and to be a mother your own way.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering
if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that
automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a
plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I
look forward to your new updates.

Hi! Thank you so much for reading! I’m actually not too familiar with plug-ins. I usually just tweet it myself if I do. If I learn anything new I can let you know!
