In the past month, I have learned so much.
- She will never be this small again so treasure every little second.
- You and your husband need to love each other NOW more than ever: let go of petty fights.
- Not many people get the kind of support I did from my boss and coworkers, my professors and classmates, my husband, my sisters and mother, my close friends, and the hospital/pediatric/gynecologic staff. (Not to mention the happy words of strangers -- thankfully, no one has said a mean word yet -- when they do, I will let you all know! (; )
- Appearance is completely unimportant when you're recovering, nursing, and learning to be a mom!
- My life is not nearly as important as her.
I am extremely lucky to be able to be a wife, a mom, a student, a money-maker, and myself.
Everyone is so kind and accepting. I didn't expect this kind treatment at all. I'm just glad I can surround myself with a supportive community and have the strength to simply ignore the rest.
I am very happy.
I am so so so lucky.
