Oh, and in case you were wondering..

This is what mothers generally look like after giving birth.

You won't care what your hair looks like after you give birth to your baby. All you will care about is that you are holding this teeny tiny little miracle that you created. 

Think about the hair later. Think about eyelash extensions never.  

Just because you don't care what you look like during or after labor doesn't mean that you won't care ever again. It just means that you have way more important things to think about at that point.

And I won't lie. I have gone out unshowered and without makeup in sweats on occasion. At that point, I was so exhausted that I didn't notice. Running on five minutes of sleep is rough.

Thanks :O) I could have looked worse. That was right after I had hemorraged. Fun times! That pitocin can sure make you look like a puffy monster.
