i jut wanted to say thank you to all the ladies that were there for me during my pregnancy and since the LOs have been home!!!!

Your probibly asking why the thank you?? The reason is b/c i feel like for the 1st time everything will be OK... I feel like i CAN do this... I feel like i have survived the scariest thing i have ever done in my life and it was all of your support and listening to me freak out that got me through.

Its so amazing that my LOs will be 4 mo old in 2 days. With every passing day my love just multiplies. I think i cant love them more and then i wake up the next day and i do.. i do love them more!!! When i first brought them home i thought NO WAY can i do this.. but you all answered my questions and supported me... in ways that only other MoMs could. Now i feel like this is my life and i am happy. I can do anything i put my mind too!!! I can be a mommy to two beautiful babies at once!!!!!!!!

I am sure there will be scary hard times ahead and i am sure i will have many many more questions to ask. But for the first time since these guys came home i feel comfortable. Its never easy but its getting more normal and a LOT more fun! When i walk in the nursery in the am after the LOs STTN and i see two BIG smiles and giggles my heart melts and i say thats what all the fear... pain.. discomfort.. panic attacks and stretch marks were for!!! hahahaha!!

I am soo thankful i had you ladies!!! Words cant express how much i needed this board!!! there were many nights i was alone w/ the LOs and i was scared and DH was at work and we have no family around and im not one to reach out to friends... so i turned to this board and got the support i was looking for.

Now shhh dont tell DH but i look forward to him going to work... i look forward to the fun we have playing after diner and i look forward to that feeling of them comfy on my chest as i carry them into the nursery to put them to bed... and sitting in the glider praying in the silence and all i hear is them breathing deeply.

For those moms who are still pregnant or who just had thier LOs please take it from me its gets less scary it does get easier and its definately worth it when you get to see they joy on thier face when they see you!!!

Thank you MoMs!!!!!

It was around this same age that I posted the exact same thing and everyone told me that "it only gets better." I didn't believe it, but I'm hear to tell you it's true. Once things become okay and manageable, every month after that just gets better, more fun, and just amazing! So...congrats, you have a lot more to look forward too!
