Immediately after, she sent an encouraging message to moms like herself that may be struggling in their motherhood journey, asking them to cut themselves some slack as they were no handbook to raising children.

The fitness enthusiast voiced, "Being a mom is so beautiful and hard simultaneously. Currently crying over a glass of wine, thinking about how fast it's all going by. 

The message continued, "But my son is healthy and happy, and being so easy on mommy, making this choice almost a no-brainer. As a mom, you only want what's best; only YOU know what that is. Any moms looking for a sign and struggling, here it is."
