Jessie J is offering a candid confession on her new life as a first time mum. The 35-year-old recently welcomed a son named Sky with her partner Chanan Safir Colman, 39. She took to her Instagram stories to sympathise with other mums and admitted she is finding the adjustment 'hard af' on certain days.
In a lengthy note, Jessie urged other parents to speak openly about their experiences even when things don't go as planned. She started her message by saying: ‘Sending a hug to any new mum who is processing everything. Hormones. Breast feeding. Pumping. Identity confusion. Missing your job. An endless to do list. Exhaustion. Isolation. Recovery. Limited social life. And more… [sic].’
The hitmaker continued by offering words of encouragement for both herself and her fellow mums. She said: ‘You are doing an AMAZING job. You are beautiful in your new skin. It won’t be this hard forever. That baby is in love with you. Love you [sic].’
The singer also admitted that she was giving herself a pep-talk as much as she was attempting to help her fellow mothers. She revealed her own struggles and said: ‘Wrote that for myself too. Some days are hard af. I hate that we so often feel so apprehensive to say it’s hard af sometimes to not seem ungrateful. Gratitude can always exist. As it does. It’s magical. But sometimes it’s hard af. And that’s ok. It’s a lot. We are allowed to be sad, overwhelmed and feel completely lost and alone even inside the magic moments. We are human. Love you all seriously. If you see me out and about and have just had a baby. Come give me a hug. We both need it [sic].’
Jessie J recently shared pictures from her nighttime routine, which included her rigorous feeding schedule. She posted an hour-by-hour run-down of her evenings and added a picture of herself passed out on top of her breast bump.
The singer's heartfelt words are sure to resonate with many new parents. Jessie's advice is to speak openly about your experiences - even when things don't go as planned. She is also encouraging mums to show each other love and support. In her own words, ‘We both need it [sic].’
