Who is behind Miriam...

Míriam: The perception of motherhood is closely related to each baby and is something very subjective. In my case, I feel very lucky, since Valentina has made everything very easy. Even so, my life has changed completely, something that I already expected to happen, but I did not realize the magnitude of the change until I held her in my arms. I was surprised that I did not experience any of the fears that arose during pregnancy. It's amazing how all these worries disappear when I'm with her. An instinct arises in you, innately, that makes you react with common sense in any situation.

M: Fortunately for now I haven't had to balance it with my professional life. I'm still enjoying maternity leave so I haven't had to go back to work yet. Yes, it is something that concerns me. I know it won't be easy. Since she was born, I still haven't been separated from her for a minute, I don't want to think what it will be like when I spend more than eight hours a day without seeing her, it makes me sad just thinking about it, the things I'll miss... As for my personal life, he role of mother has invaded me completely. I have opted for breastfeeding, and although it is something precious and that I enjoy very much, it is also very demanding and entails not being able to separate myself from it. Valentina is very greedy, and takes shots practically every hour, or an hour and a half at most.

M:I am a teacher, a vocational teacher, I really enjoy my work. Before having Valentina, I had never considered leaving him, I don't like changes very much and I tend to stay in my comfort zone. So the idea had always been to enjoy as much as the permit allows me, which is much less than I would like, and get back on board. It is also true that at this moment, having Valentina in my arms, I would not be afraid to change and leave my comfort zone. If I were offered the opportunity to continue with Valentina and reconcile it with a different work life, of course I would study the idea.

M:I don't know if I'm the best person to advise a female entrepreneur, since I'm not. But as a woman, I would tell her that if she wants to be a mother, she should not think about it and be one. Because with all the good and all the bad that motherhood offers, I am convinced that it will be the best adventure that you undertake in your entire life.

M: I would invite Alba from @mamizanahoria

Family here comes the interview with Míriam, Valentina's mother. They really make you want to keep talking to her for a long time. Very interesting topics have emerged such as breastfeeding, and we will surely return to it later. What is your experience with breastfeeding? How have you combined it with going back to work? We are looking forward to reading to you too! Come to insta and comment on Miriam's photo with your experience. Ahhh and by the way, if you still don't follow @la_pequena_valentina you have no excuses!

Now we go for Alba, the mother behind @mamizanahoria's insta who is in the final stretch, for giving birth to her second little one! Let's see if we can find a gap for her to tell us how her mother's life is going.

See you soon!
