Where it all began…

Welcome to Tantrums & Truths, a space born in the middle of sleepless nights, sticky fingers, and moments that split me wide open — with love, frustration, laughter, and the kind of truth you only find when becoming a mum for the first time.

This blog is my honest account of first-time motherhood — not the curated, Pinterest-perfect version, but the real, raw, sometimes overwhelming version. The one where joy and exhaustion live side by side. Where every tantrum (mine or baby’s) teaches me something new. Where the smallest moments can feel like the biggest wins.

Here, I share stories from my daily life as a new mum:

💬 the unfiltered emotions,

🍼 the milestones that don’t always make it into baby books,

💡 the lessons I never saw coming,

💗 the quiet in-between moments that remind me this is all worth it.

Whether you’re a first-time mum, a seasoned parent, or someone who just wants to feel a little less alone in the chaos — I hope this space gives you comfort, connection, and a few much-needed laughs.

Because the truth is: motherhood isn’t always magical.

But it is always meaningful.

And you don’t have to do it alone.
