We did a question box on our instagram page and asked “What is one thing you would go back and tell your postpartum self?” We were flooded with so many beautiful words of advice and we compiled some of our favorites in a list for you. Send to your expecting mama friends, save for yourself, and comment any other words of advice you have! XOXO J&C
