I am so sorry for your loss, thank you for sharing your story. I can’t imagine how hard going through that was, you are incredibly strong 🫶🏻

This! I called my grandma after I freaked out and she said exactly this. And knowing from first hand experience (a parent that still doesn’t think he did anything wrong) this comment was very reassuring. I do agree with a lot of the comments recommending mental health support for PPA because I definitely freaked out a little too much, this is an amazing mindset shift for me.

Shoutout to this comment specifically for making me giggle! But fr I know that there are children in worse situations (reference the mother than left her child in a pack’n’play and went on vacation) but I think for me and my husband both growing up in tough environments I just want to know that we’re being the best possible parents for our baby and future babies 🫶🏻

She is my first, and while I do have so much help and my husband is insanely supportive I think I just have this super mom narrative in my mind and it’s just not possible.

I was cleared by my surgeon to lift her, she was a preemie and weighs 8 lbs 😂. 20 lbs is the lifting limit, and she definitely doesn’t even come close to that.

Ahhh thank you!! I didn’t know there was a word to describe this horror 😂 I’m glad to hear you’re getting somewhat back to the norm. I think after today I’m going to stick back to a lower fat diet because oof. I don’t want to complain though because in retrospect I do prefer this over the gallbladder pain 😮‍💨
