new babies and old frinds
The tenth month! Postpartum is definitely a part of pregnancy, so here
you go: All our new moms, if you're still reading here and haven't migrated over to misc.kids.breastfeeding or misc.kids yet, how are you doing? Lochia tapering off, or telling you to take it a little easier? Are you getting out of the house, or snuggling in with the baby? How's your support network? Don't hesitate to talk to your OB if you're feeling bit blue -- it's *very* common, and there's no reason for anyone to suffer (the vast majority of antidepressants are fine to take while breastfeeding, for example). Still getting the hang of all this newbaby stuff? How's motherhood treating you so far? How are you feeling about your birth experience? Write everything down, it disappears so quickly! And not-so-new moms, whether you're a beloved member or lurking or skimming or occasionally checking in, how is everything going with your families? One of the most valuable part of this board, I think, is the number of not-pregnant women who stay in the community, whether to give advice, follow friends' progress, live vicariously, or cheer each other on. So how are you all doing? Mary |
