Migraines and motherhood just don’t mix very well AT ALL. But It’s like you just figure out how to function by faith when you’re a mommy. This weekend I battled with a migraine and today another one came on. I haven’t had a migraine in 3 years after battling with them for a long time.

Though today has been mentally tough, God has been gracing me through. There are no days off as a mother. You just learn to figure it out by faith. I went to war in the spirit and prayed this morning while trying to manage this migraine, because I know it’s an attack and that the enemy would love to sit me down and shut me up. Tomorrow I’ll be teaching a group of teen moms and dads about Sex God’s way and no devil in hell will stop me from sharing the love of God through His living word.

So here’s to praying and preparing anyways! Here’s to mommyhood even when it’s mentally hard some days. Here’s to awesome hubbies who help! Here’s to awesome sisters in Christ who pray for you, here’s to smiling in spite of the pain and here’s to figuring out how to function by faith!

Natural Remedies for migraine relief…

I also diffused Young Living essential oil peppermint and rubbed it onto my forehead!

For breastfeeding moms, drink lots of water and even a cup of hot tea/coffee. Be sure to only take supplements or medication that do not harm your liquid gold (milk) supply or your sweet baby. Try to put baby to sleep for multiple naps in the crisis of a migraine and you yourself get lots and lots of rest. Pray! Pray a whole lot. Take the lights off and do as much as you can only in the dark/dim space since the lights will hurt your throbbing head even more. Lastly, do be afraid to ask for help. God helps us through willing servants so humbly ask for help and and accept it!

Feel free to share any other natural remedies you may have up your sleeves to help aid migraine relief. One “remedy” that has blessed my life richly has been going vegetarian almost 3 years ago and now plants based/vegan lifestyle. I’ll share about journey/transition in a different post! Wife and Mommy duties are calling my name now so I’ve gotta head on outl! Until next time beloveds!

Be loved abundantly,
