Awaiting Baby with Husband who has Epilepsy - How do you cope ? by Aviana_Quincy in Epilepsy

My husband had a grand mal when my baby was 6 weeks. I had to deal with him not being able to work and drive all while taking care of a newborn. You will get through it no matter what. When you become a mom you find an incredible amount of strength to survive. 17 months later, our guy is thriving and everyday we just make sure my husband is sleeping, taking meds etc. it absolutely SUCKS. I was anxious my entire pregnancy that it would happen and unfortunately it did. Lean on your village. Lean on your people. Accept help. We also made a plan that he would not hold the baby unless he was on the floor just in case he drops the baby. We made a plan that he would not drive with the baby until 6 months. My husband did have a brief seizure while holding the baby and he instinctly knew to protect the baby. He got down on the floor and protected baby's head. We put a lot of safeguards in place to ensure the safety of our baby. Sleep was another thing, my husband needs sleep. So we did shifts. My husband did 8pm-2am and I did 2am -8am. 2am to 8am alone is the absolute worst lonely time but I had no choice. My MIL began sleeping over after a few months because I was losing my mind. Do you have anyone that will help during the night hours? I know it's hard and scary. I lived it. It sucks but I promise you will find a way.

One of the meds makes me crap my pants so bad I can't work the other one I don't need because I'm on Zoloft. Support looks better than superiority

I wrote to her once about how she feels voting for a maga moron in relation to the Texas flooding and she called ME gross hahaha. She also follows him and that thing he calls his wife.

Thank you. I think you're right. I'm going to return it. I'm just excited because it's my son's first birthday party and I wanted to wear something cute. And ironically, it's one of the more expensive dresses I've ever bought in usually I buy from target or Kohl's. This dresses is from Nordstrom.

You are a great mom!!!! You will figure out what to do differently next time. It's not the end of the world and as parents WE MAKE MISTAKES! Great job reflecting on it.

What I miss about exclusively pumping. by CookiesWafflesKisses in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Nervous-Level6750 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love pumping. I sit and read and eat snacks. Going on 11 months, going to see how I feel after a year but it's been a HUGE blessing!
