All things marriage

789K views · 148K reactions | It’s funny because we’ve actually lived through both sides of this. A lot of it came from how society teaches us what a man’s job is and what a woman’s job is. But it also came from the fact that my husband grew up in a household where a lot was done for him, so when we became parents, we had to learn and unlearn a lot together. This post comes from our real experience navigating marriage, parenthood, and figuring out what partnership actually looks like. When I was on maternity leave, I found myself carrying the majority of the mental load and invisible labour. And honestly, that contributed more to my depression than motherhood itself. Looking back, it was never really the children that felt overwhelming. It was feeling like I was responsible for everything that nobody else could see. The planning.
The remembering.
The organising.
The anticipating.
The constant thinking ahead. Things changed when we started seeing ourselves as a team instead of falling into traditional roles. We’ve both grown so much through the years, and I’m incredibly grateful that we found our way together. We’re not perfect, but we’re learning, communicating, and showing up for each other. Because marriage and parenthood were never meant to be carried by one person. The best version of family life happens when both people share the load. 🤍 I hope conversations like this encourage us to think differently about the example we’re setting for the next generation🤍 #manchild #motherhood #invisibleload #motherhoodthroughinstagram #marriage | ️ 𝙷 𝙾 𝚄 𝚂 𝙴 𝙾 𝙵 𝚈 𝙾 𝙾 𝙽 𝙸 ️
