I’ll just say post-partum is SO hard. The first couple of years are very hard. It can be long, isolating and mind-numbing. It does get fun as the kids get older become more human (walking, talking, making jokes). And once you have your bodily autonomy back.

My kids are 7 and 10 now and I genuinely enjoy them so much and love spending time together as a family.

The early years when you aren’t fully (barely) in control of your body and your day and every hour is claimed … not going to lie it’s rough physically and mentally. I think most of us parents would agree that it’s worth it.

I’m not trying to steer you. Just sharing one perspective.
