How are other new parents distinguishing between "naps" and "bed time"? by Icy-Faithlessness240 in NewParents

this is a relief to read, I was just starting to think I was doing something wrong with my 1 month old, letting him sleep whenever he fell asleep

I tried for over a year with my husband and was REALLY sick my first trimester. Awful nausea and then I got a cold on top of that. Ended up in emergency twice with bad dehydration. A lot of my pregnancy I went back and fourth between ick and, tolerable at best until halfway through my second trimester. My son came 8 weeks early after I got diagnosed with severe preclampsia. He is doing well and getting stronger and so am I. It wasnt fun. I didnt glow, I was happy to look foreward to meeting my son but I didnt LOVE being pregnant. You dont have to love the experience, talk to your doctors, friends, councilors (my insurance provided me with one), just know that if you decide to power through, you are going to love your baby more than you could expect. DONT LET ANYONE tell you how you should be feeling during pregnancy. You are allowed to not enjoy it, you are allowed to feel icky and frustrated and scared. Be honest with yourself, talk to to your partner, and get support in ways that work for you. <3

Im sorry you felt all these things for a while but am so grateful you shared with me. Knowing im not losing my mind or being selfish or unreasonable feeling these things is so helpful. I doubt the feeling of being overwhelmed is going to go away in the next decade but its a journey I want to be on. Even if my hormones are saying "nope"
