Hi, I’m Bre. I’m a severe preeclampsia survivor and two-time NICU mama navigating motherhood after pregnancy and birth trauma. I decided to create mothermade as a way to share my journey and connect with others who have walked similar paths.
Summer brought us you
You and your perfectly round head with peach fuzz hair
You and your ten tiny fingers and ten tiny toes
You and your sweet sweet smiles and conversations in coos
You and your bright blue eyes and perfect button nose
You and your cozy cuddles and curious gaze
I wish we could live forever in those perfect summer days
What to expect from mothermade.
Motherhood is already a beautiful, messy, wild adventure. So when you add pregnancy and birth trauma on top of it, there’s a lot to process. My hope for mothermade is to talk openly and honestly about not just the beautiful parts of motherhood, but the messy ones, too. I’ll talk healing, health, hardships, and navigating mothering and family planning after trauma.
