Be parents

We have already many weeks since the quarantine began with a very particular rhythm of life: at home, children without attending school and thousands of families doing telework, trying to juggle between that, housework and the virtual education of their children . It's not easy at all, especially for those of us who have young children and work from home.

None of us put our hands on our heads if someone claims that parents are under stress. We also experience in ourselves how teleworking, distance education for our children and living together 24 hours a day has increased this stress.

The coronavirus came to completely change our lives, keeping us all locked in our homes and separated from the people we used to hang out with. We have all found ourselves confined for weeks and weeks, trying to live our lives as normal as possible.

After the announcement that face-to-face classes will not resume until September, parents have begun to think about how to deal with the new situation, when we can go out again to work with the children at home.

Sharing the experience of motherhood through social networks generates great participation, since a community is created where to resolve insecurities, care for the baby or simply doubts with other moms or future moms.

The arrival of a baby is always a reason for joy, and when a change as important as that takes place in our life, we immediately want to share the good news with the people around us and share those moments with them. However, because of the coronavirus, many couples have not been able to live this experience.

There are many things that I like after becoming a mother, from the changes that occurred in my way of thinking and seeing life, to all those beautiful things that come with the arrival of children, such as listening to their little voices or the samples of affection that they have towards us.

We have all lived that moment of wanting or needing to do something, and not being able to because our baby constantly demands us. For them, the arms of mom and dad are a necessity because they protect them, fill them with love and are their refuge when they need to feel safe.
