I came across Dani's Instagram profile about 3.5 years ago and to this day I can say it saved my life! I felt so alone with my baby who was so different from any baby I've ever known. A baby that never slept, was practically glued to me, wanted to nurse every 5 mins and cried so much that I felt aggression that scared me. None of my acquaintances/friends had "such a" child/baby. I had been through it all at that point: 4 versch. OsteopathInnen, 2 versch. Midwives, versch. Pediatricians, consultation in the crying ambulance, etc. None of this gave me any clarity, because I was only ever told two things: "You are too nervous, the child will notice that" or "It will get better". I was very relaxed at the beginning of my motherhood and not at all excited about becoming a mom. I had already seen so many children grow up and knew roughly what was in store for me. But I did not expect this! CLEAR then I was nervous at some point! Dani was talking about your intense baby and I thought she was talking about mine. I know it like yesterday, how my heart raced and my eyes watered when I felt understood for the first time. From her! This strange woman on the internet, who talked into the camera as if the camera was a friend, put her hand on my shoulder every day and said: You are doing everything right, you are a good mother, your child is great and at the same time more exhausting than others - that's allowed! Allow yourself a mini-break every day, screw the household if you don't have the energy for it, get support if you can, switch off the others and much more. Thanks to her, I understood that I have a particularly large task that takes more strength than a single person could expend. Twice now I have been in her treasure MAMAKOMPASS and there I finally met other mothers who feel the same way I do. After the first round Mamakompass I said to Dani: "I wish this program to every (expectant) mom in the world! And I mean that in the same way! No matter how confident or insecure you feel in dealing with your child, yourself or your environment, the Mamakompass is a TREASURE! Dani calls her mission: BIG LOVE - I love this word and feel part of it.
Thank you dear Dani, thank you dear Jan, your work means peace and love!
