Pregnancy gets 9 months of attention. Labor gets a hospital stay. Postpartum gets one 15 minute checkup at 6 weeks.
But postpartum is the longest medical event of your life. Your hormones don't return to baseline for at least 6 months (longer if you are BF). Your pelvic floor takes a year (at least). Your bone density takes longer. Your brain is remodeling itself for years. You're metabolically recovering for as long as you breastfeed.
We have completely undercounted what this season actually is. And too many women are doing it all alone.
The year was 2011! Phone cameras were blurry! The industry said she didn’t have a hit for her album “4” and that she was washed up! Then Jay-Z hit upload and the rest was history! 🥹
Wow. This new Kamala Harris ad narrated by Viola Davis is one of the most powerful things I’ve watched. It tells the story, experience, & vision of Kamala Harris & why she is ready for this. It’s a masterpiece & it sent chills down my body. Watch & share.
And I finally made it to one ten years after this tweet.
We stood there in the pouring rain, in our all white, singing our lungs out until we saw rainbows.
