When we talk about starting a family, the focus is often on having a baby—but that’s just the beginning. The real question is, are you ready to raise a whole person? The baby phase is sweet, but it’s only a small part of the journey. Sometimes I look back and wish I’d spent more time discussing what it truly means to guide someone through all of life’s stages. It’s a lifelong commitment, filled with unexpected challenges and joys. If you’re considering parenthood, I encourage you to think beyond the first year and imagine the years ahead. What are your thoughts on this? Did you have deep conversations before deciding to become a parent? Share your experiences below! #ParentingJourney #RaisingHumans #FamilyReflections #Parenting
