We knew bringing a baby home from the hospital would be hard, we just didn’t know it would be THIS hard. And we certainly didn’t anticipate the complicated emotions that come along with becoming parents and facing the reality of being responsible for another human, forever.
This is a little bit of a dark episode, but we’re publishing this a couple weeks after this was recorded and we promise we’re feeling better now!
Suggested resources:
• Breastfeeding: La Leche League, Kelly Mom, and doing whatever the f works for your family. Since we recorded this episode we've talked to a bunch of our mom friends, and while they all have different stories about breastfeeding, ALL of them said they wished they hadn't stressed so much about it and that they now understand that any version of feeding their kid would have been totally fine.
• Sleep: Precious Little Sleep, Taking Cara Babies
• Commiseration: r/beyondthebump
