When it comes to milestones, forget about your baby’s achievements for a moment. As a new mom, the moments you conquer are truly worthy of celebration. Did you manage to enjoy three hours of uninterrupted sleep? Or perhaps you savored your first hot meal since giving birth? What about finishing a cup of coffee without needing to reheat it multiple times? These little victories deserve recognition!
Two innovative mothers from Sydney, Australia, Sarah Green and Emma Brown, recognized a gap in the parenting market and decided to fill it with humor and authenticity. They created “Mom’s Milestones,” a delightful collection of cards that celebrate the often-overlooked achievements of new mothers.
“We found ourselves sharing stories about the real challenges we faced, and we realized that these discussions weren’t reflected in the available parenting products,” Green told a local publication. “While beautiful baby milestone photos are everywhere, the struggles and triumphs of motherhood often go unacknowledged.”
The early days of motherhood can feel lonely and exhausting, and laughter is a much-needed remedy. Receiving cards that celebrate your own milestones can be a breath of fresh air amidst the chaos of new motherhood.
“Initiating #moms_milestones was our way of creating a supportive community for moms who can share their humorous and unique accomplishments,” they stated on their social media page after their first set of cards was printed. “We encourage everyone to tag friends who could use a morale boost and to share their own milestones—we love hearing about them!”
