Most women don’t look like the mums sitting on the front of Mother’s Day cards.
Some are the mum and the dad. Or are in the midst of post-natal depression. Or are meant to have a baby in their arms, and they don’t. For some, it feels like they had a loud and full house just yesterday, and now it’s empty. Others are step-mothers, or foster mothers, or adoptive mothers.
Today, Mamamia celebrates all kinds of mums - the ones who feel like they’re failing or the ones who find today a source of pain rather than celebration.
We see you.
