Congratulations! Welcome! That first week can be scary, I remember thinking “they just let us go home with her?” Having kids will easily be the most challenging thing you’ll do for a long time. How are you holding up?
my sleep is fucked, but otherwise i really really really love being a mom. i am just swelling full of so much love and an overwhelming urge to care for and protect my silly little crying ball of joy. i had no idea it would feel like this before she was born but now that she’s here it’s like my brain and heart have been completely rewired
Aw you’re going to make me cry. They are so precious. I’ve told people before, having a child will be the death of you, and from your ashes you will be reborn anew. You will never be the person you were before them, you’ll be so much more.
There are days I wonder what I’ve gotten into. Then there are days where I’ve never been so full of joy. You both grow together, in a dialectical entanglement, each reflecting one another, building new and exciting days, months, and years.
Every person who cares for them leaves a little part of themselves woven into the tapestry of their personality. They are there sum of our parts and hopefully more.
Welcome to the ranks of parenthood. That first period feels daunting but babies just need to eat and sleep at that age. I used a stopwatch app on my phone to track feeding times so I knew when my boys would be hungry or wake up, but I had twins so it was quite full on
howdy hex parents! I’ve recently joined your ranks, my baby girl is now a week and change old
how’s it going?
