The role of grandmother can wait, because it&#039;s her little girl who cries, her breasts aching. The mother&#039;s mother scrubs poop-stained clothes, sweeps the floor, and makes sure they have lunch. She buys button-down nightgowns and washes sheets soiled with milk and blood. She knows how hard it is to become a mother.<\/p>\n<p>In the silence of the early morning, she thinks of her daughter, wakes up. How many times has it happened? Will she make it through the morning with a smile? And she brings her something warm and her favorite dessert, and she can see everything that&#039;s happening to her daughter, the new mother, better and before anyone else. Busy, Mama&#039;s mother suffers in silence. With every choice her daughter makes, she remembers her own.<\/p>\n<p>In front of the new mother, new baby, lots of milk, and so much lap, she questions everything she did, long ago. Time that won&#039;t return. If today is what you have, then today is what it is. She looks into your eyes, brings bread and coffee with milk. That&#039;s the lap, that&#039;s the milk now. Here and now, present.<\/p>\n<p>A mother&#039;s mother helps her daughter fly. She does everything in her power to help her rebuild herself, to discover her new identity. She is now a mother, but she will always be her daughter. Every new mother needs the care of another woman who understands how fragile this moment is. The mother&#039;s mother can be a sister, mother-in-law, friend, neighbor, aunt, grandmother, sister-in-law, or acquaintance. The fact is that the postpartum period requires female unity, the understanding that only another mother can have. A female tribe, but above all, and if possible, &quot;a mama,&quot; the mother of the new mother.<\/p>\n<p>Author: <a href=\"\/en\/\"https:>Marcela Feriani<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mientras los ojos del mundo est\u00e1n en el beb\u00e9 que acaba de nacer, la madre de la madre ve a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":788,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-787","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investigacion"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=787"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/788"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=787"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=787"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cristinaorozbajo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=787"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
