“moments of sweetness with my love bugs. ?

Do you guys think there’s a difference in parenting little boys and little girls? Particularly in the period before gender norms are imposed on them?

Really interested to hear from moms with boys and girls.

I honestly can’t imagine how the experience would be different if I had a baby girl (besides the pretty dresses and all ways I would style their hair❤️). But people often allude to it and I’m always left with a bit of a wondering.

Is there really a difference or is it just us & what we have been taught to associate with ‘girls’ and ‘boys’?

Sibulelo Manamatela Speaks About Being A Mother At The Age Of 21

According to the renowned lifestyle blogger, she became a mother at the age of 21 adding that it is something that she has been looking back to and reflecting upon it.

The post she made reads;

“Any moms who had their children young? How old were you & how was the experience for you?

I’ve been looking back and reflecting on having a baby at a considerably young age (I was 21) and thinking about the experience. One of the major feelings I had was doubt. I questioned whether I could handle being a mom, I questioned if the timing was right and how things would turn out for us. Where would we be in 5 years time and how would our life look?

It hasn’t been five years yet, but I think now is a great time to look back because unlike back then, I feel settled in my role as a mother. We’re not where we want to be yet and I don’t have all the motherhood answers but I have learnt so so much.

I shared a video of some advice I would have appreciated when I was young & pregnant on my YouTube channel. If you know a young woman whose pregnant or just had a baby, please share it with her; it might just be helpful. ✨

‘This Time Last Year I Was Sick & Tired Of Being Pregnant’ – Sibulelo Manamatela Recounts Her Pregnancy Days

Sibulelo Manamatela has recounted her pregnancy days in a recent post she made.
The renowned lifestyle blogger shared this post on her personal social media handle on the popular social media platform, Instagram.

According to her, this time last year she was sick and tired of being pregnant adding that it was almost 2 full weeks past the due date and all she was just wanted to do was to meet her little son.

Sharing a photo of herself and her little son who will be turning one very soon, she wrote;

“Someone here is turning one on Sunday. ?

This time last year I was sick and tired of being pregnant; I was almost 2 full weeks past the due date and I just wanted to meet this little guy.

What was to follow was a very traumatic labour experience which I avoid talking about because it is so triggering. I still cry when I think about it for too long.

I think the risks that childbirth poses on women need to be spoken about more often but I get it- the trauma of reliving that experience is too much.

We went through a lot, in a short space of time, him and I. But here we are, whole, healthy and so happy. I am truly grateful for that. ♥️”

In a recent post, she took to social media to speak about how she feels aligned with her destiny.

Sharing a photo of herself and one of her sons, she wrote;

“The other day I wanted to write and share something about how I felt so aligned with my destiny. I wanted to say how I felt like I was exactly where I meant to be. The feeling was so affirming especially considering that it’s my birthday soon (Friday). I felt so great.

But it’s Sunday night, tomorrow is a new week- the week of my birthday- and the feeling is gone. Instead, I feel unsettled and uncertain. Holding onto what is palpable – that is love.

Kukhanya sat with me while I was cooking and spoke about random things- it wasn’t a big moment but it was what I needed. Mangaliso got so excited to see me after not seeing me for like and hour, and that my dear friends, is all I needed (this evening).

I’m holding onto this.

Wishing you a great week ahead. ✨”
