Parenting after a Loss

Confessions Anyone, Go...

  • After grocery shopping and popping the truck open I loaded my groceries and misplaced my keys.  I found them in the bag with the eggs and bread about an hour later after loading and unloading my groceries 3 times.  Sleep deprivation sucks.
  • I shaved my legs for the first time in 2 weeks this morning.
  • My babies are sound asleep in their nursery and I am loving it.

  • *DH's BF has blown us off since DD was born and says WE have fallen off the face of the Earth... He hasn't even called DH... the phone works both ways...

    *DH's BF didn't come to the hospital when DD was born because he had to get beer brewing supplies... but his wife had time to come visit... go figure...

    *DH's BF was forced to our house when DD was 5 days old and he wouldn't even look at her.

    *DH's BF's wife has made 2 comments now about us "Falling off the face of the Earth" #$*! them.... Indifferent

    Screw DH's BF right now....  my DH is very hurt by this..

    *When DD falls asleep on a car ride to see someone I'm so tired of people saying "all she does is sleep!" Ooooh sure.... come to my house 8:00am... you can see her awake for HOURS... 

    *I've had 2 margaritas- I feel good...

  • My PP body is horrendous. I guess I am vain becuase as much as I love DD and being a mom, looking in the mirror can be a tough pill to swallow. I can remember a time when I felt confident in my looks. Now I feel like I am Mrs Frump. The worst part is I cant see how simple weight loss will cure the excess amount of stretched skin. Plastic suegery, here I come!!!

    DD is enterig her witching hours. It is a 4 to 6 hour fussy period which consists of very limited intervals of sleep. I've come to hate the evenings.

    Josie was like too, but outgrew it at 4 weeks! I hate saying this to people, but it does get better =)

  • I'm nasty to my DH lately.  I can't help myself it seems. I have no patience with him, and I don't try to hide it. And he doesn't even really deserve it. :(

  • This one is immature, but we are having a NYE party and I am getting drunk! i haven't had a serious drink since last NYE. Thank God for grandmas who are dying to babysit

    I love my daughter more than anything in the world. God she is beautiful. She is the best 'mistake' of my life

    I am deathly afraid that someone will sexually abuse my daughter. I read in my childcare book that 1 in 5 girls will be abused. Frightening. I'm afraid that I won't know how to protect her. If someone ever hurts her it will devestate me. Being a parent is scarier than I ever thought.

  • *while driving home from my parents tonight, I made DH pull over so that I could check on Jake.  He gave a quick short scream and then nothing else.  I was almost in tears b/c I had myself so worked up that something is wrong with him.

    *I have so much anxiety when it comes to him and I am constantly thinking that something is wrong with him.  I try to hide it from DH but it really scares me that I am being too over-protective.

     

  • *I can't stop eating when I'm bored

    *even though I don't have that much school left, I'm over it

    *Even though DH isn't getting me what I asked for for Christmas, I got him what he wanted and got my mom to get him the rest that I couldn't afford to get for him

    *I love DS, but sometimes it's nice to have a night off from being mommy

    *I'm so tired that my head hurts

    *I just had Mirena put in yesterday and it made me a little sad to know that there is no chance for a "happy accident" in the next 5 years?

  • * Tomorrow is Leo's bris (circumcision) and i am a basket case. I cannot fathom how I will stomach watching my baby get cut. I think I may just leave the house and let DH handle it. Oy vey. Crying
  • - I think I have the best baby.  She is just a really enjoyable little person and I am incredibly blessed

    - I love having her sleep with us

    - I can't imagine putting her in a crib in another room

    - I really want to have sex but DH hasn't acted interested and I want it to be "good" sex, not just 'doing it', so I'm not initiating it

    - I don't think I turn DH on any more - I am very flabby and stretch marked and scarred

    - I had one glass of wine tonight and started slurring

  • I honestly disagree when people say that it gets better. My son is almost 7 weeks old and it's not better at all. He doesn't sleep better and he still eats every 2 hours. How is that better than it was when he was 4 weeks old? I think people just get used to it.
