thanks so much for this lilbean! it really made me smile! i'm only 13+3 so i'm sure i have loads more horror stories to hear but i'm already sick of it! people tell me they had an awful birth so i ask them to please not give me the details and of course they do anyway! its so lovely to hear positive stuff and that, as we all know, its all worth it a hundred times over! xxxx
Lilbean, I couldn't agree with you more, my little man is 13 days old and I already feel like I want to relive the last 13 days as I have enjoyed them so much.
I had heard so many horror stories - we were told by OH's parents that we would find it extremely difficult !! and I was worrying that I would not know what to do.
Freddie is fab - yes we have ups and downs but everything lilbean has written makes it worthwhile.
Don't listen to anything...... also the gaviscon goes the second they are born !!! Crazy
Lovely post lilbean - im actually really glad to read it because i have such a positive view on having a baby, the sleep deprivation doesn't bother me, ive barely slept all the way through pregnancy anyway, so ive got used to it, people say wont you miss being able to do this and that, and quite honestly, i dont think i will, i cant think of much that the baby will stop hubby and i from doing. i am looking forward to everything!! and there is nothing at all that puts me off having this baby! even when people seem to try there hardest to make out it's gonna be a life of sacrifice and hard work! im sure it is hard work, but anything worth having is in my opinion, and i cant wait! im glad your getting on so well with your little one!
How nice of you to take time out and post this for all of us first time mummies, your post was lovely and actually bought tears to my eyes at the thought of all of those experiences that I have yet to come
thank you so much for this lovely post it's true you hear so many horror stories and end up scared at how hard it's gonna be and now the first 6 weeks you're going to feel like you've 'been hit by a bus' etc. i'm really looking forward to it all again now, and to get that feeling back is invaluable. so thank you so much! xxx CC 38 weeks today
What a lovely post- I've been feeling a bit down recently due to other peoples views on what my life (or lack of!) will be like once baby is here. With only 4 weeks ago this is a lovely post to read.
