Parenting after a Loss

To all you TTCers...

I don't know if anyone shared this or not when it was published last month, but I laughed so hard I cried. She can be extremely rude, but.

Re: To all you TTCers...

  • That is hilarious and true. The first time I took my 4yr old and the baby out at the same time I came home saying I was never doing that again. Lol. I've braved it a few times since but it's almost always an ordeal.

    Yes, yes it is.  LOL! 

    That article really made me chuckle and brought back tons of memories of the first few months w/ DD and DS.  It gets better w/ time as most things do but i don't miss those first few months of trying to figure it all out.  Lets just say DD is now 15months and we still never, ever go out to eat.  lord how i miss a nice meal at a restaraunt.

  • I read this. Hilarious & I'm sure super true. I'm scared to death of having a 2nd child. I still have days where I feel like its too soon to start TTC. I don't know how on earth anybody could ever have 2 under 2. I don't think I'll ever feel 100% confident. I was completely delusional about what motherhood would be like before I had DD. I quickly got snapped into reality Tongue Tied

  • I've read lots of her stuff, and I definitely feel like she writes for shock factor humor. So, while I think there's a lot of truth to how hard it is to have two kids, I'm sure it's also rewarding in the same way that having one kid is rewarding. We've made lots of sacrifices and our lives are totally different and we won't remember what it's like to be pee alone for years. x2.
