Amber Rose has admitted to have had extensive fears as a mother and the overall upbringing of her three-year-old son, Sebastian. She does, however, love being a mom and making him as happy as she can.
She revealed to People magazine: “As a mom, you have a million different fears. You don’t sleep at night. You think about all the worst things that could possibly happen to your baby, and it really sucks.
I literally almost shed a tear every single time when he hugs me really tight and he says, ‘Oh, Mommy, I love you so much.’ I want him to do any and every thing that makes him smile and be happy forever.”
Rose is also impressed with her son’s intelligence and articulation. She strongly believes this is due to the many stories she read to him as a baby.
“I read to Sebastian every single day when he was in my arms, and now he can articulate a sentence like no other, and he’s three-years-old. He knows every big word. And every time your baby says something like, ‘Oh, this is relaxing,’ you be like a thesaurus and you give [them] a different way to say it every single time so they learn.”
The star says Sebastian’s “big words” sometimes makes her laugh until she cries.
She shared: “I gave him a piece of strawberry gum, and he was so dramatic when I gave it to him because he said, ‘Oooh, Mommy, this gum feels so therapeutic.’ And I just laughed on the floor until I cried.”
Despite her fears, Rose wants other “expecting mothers” not to worry about motherhood as they will be able to adapt over time.
She explained: “I read every single book, when I was pregnant, about being a mom and being pregnant and doing the right thing, and then I had my baby and I was just like, ‘What the hell do I do now?’ Your maternal instinct comes in, and you figure it out along the way. And that’s the fun part about it.”
