Warning!

When your pregnant people are very quick to give advice. They all know how to stop the aches and pains and they have sure fire ways to get that baby out! Truth is when your pregnant this is the last thing you want to hear. I could have hiked, played tennis, gotten frisky with my man or drank a truck load of Castor oil, my baby was not coming out without a little help. As soon as people find out your pregnant, the stories begin. "When I was pregnant my uterus exploded!" It's true one woman really related this story to me! Then when I was late and wanting nothing more then to have my baby the advice rolled in. Now it's the mocking comment about sleep! I'm tired and hormonal people, let's not laugh and point at the woman with the baby. Sincerely, yes, having a baby is one of the hardest thing I think I will ever do. The first two weeks are excruciating. I have been so tired that tears are a common part of my day. When the old lady died on Grey's Anatomy or when I was singing Can't help Lovin Dat Man of Mine to Franklin and missed Jake so much that I burst into tears. It's laughable now but at the time that song truly touched me! I'm exhausted and a little in pain, but once those first two weeks are over it really is livable. It's amazing how quickly you forget the pain of pregnancy, the pain of labor and delivery and the pain of taking care of a newborn and are just able to stare at this little human and fall completely in love! He is precious! Truly my best work to date. Here we go jumping in head first to mommyhood, what do I do? How do I figure this whole thing out? Don't worry everyone, NO ADVICE needed I just want to figure this out all by myself. The not knowing is what makes this all worth it!
