Been a while since I’ve posted here but missed you all!

I’d love for this to be a discussion question, but also I am legitimately asking.

I have a beautiful son who helped crack my egg when he was born. But I’m still struggling understanding what being a mom means other than “just how I feel”

I never had good blueprints for being a father or mother so all I know is generally “how to be a parent”

But I’m curious to those of you that have children. What does being a mother mean to you? What does being a father mean to you?

Thank you

    I don’t know? I’m a mum. I don’t know what that means. I don’t know how it differs from being a dad. Aside from the label, it feels pretty much the same, yet the label is important…

      I feel largely the same way. When I try and think of what makes a good mom or dad, they both are basically “what makes a good parent”

      I just have some mental block on the labels for some reason. 😓
