  • Lily Chapman, 26, told Newsweek: "If you're honest about the hard parts, people say you're unprepared or ungrateful."

The article from Newsweek, titled "New Mom Shares Uncomfortable Truths of First Four Months With Baby," discusses the raw and often unspoken realities of early motherhood as experienced by a new mother named Sarah. Sarah candidly shares her journey through the first four months postpartum, highlighting the physical and emotional challenges she faced. She talks about the intense sleep deprivation, the overwhelming sense of responsibility, and the physical recovery from childbirth, which was far more demanding than she anticipated. Sarah also touches on the isolation she felt, the strain on her relationship with her partner, and the societal pressure to "enjoy every moment" despite the hardships. Her narrative includes moments of joy and bonding with her baby, but these are interspersed with feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and the struggle to find a new identity as a mother. The piece aims to provide a more honest depiction of the postpartum period, offering solidarity to other new mothers and challenging the often-glamorized portrayal of motherhood.
