Naomi Osaka recently opened up about a parenting struggle that she had climbed up, with all the insecurities lined up along with it. In a new post made on X, the 26-year-old tennis star went on to reveal that she did find herself quite unconfident as a new mom. Writing in both Japanese and English, she wrote that this was something that she would have to conquer- the fact that she didn’t think she would make a good mother. A lot of doubts raced through her head- thoughts that she had swatted away like mosquitoes. She then went on to explain that when she looked at her 3-month-old daughter, Shai, she realized that she really needed to address her feelings.

Naomi Osaka continued that after she looked into Shai’s eyes, and held her, she would always think that the little bundle of joy depended a lot on her, so she had to obviously be better. She claimed that it was a strange feeling watching one’s child grow up for one could blink, and they would be doubling in size in over a few months.
Nevertheless, the tennis star remembers to breathe and be present in the moment at all times. She concluded that gratitude reminds her to breathe constantly, and also take in the little things. She mentioned that she was so grateful for yet another year when things looked up for her, and everyone believed and wanted her to be the strong woman that she always was.
