3 months postpartum
January 3rd, I will be 3 months postpartum. Since delivering her, we’ve had illness that put me and her back in the hospital. Now we are dealing with ear infections, eye infections, and I’m dealing with some things too. I have not had my first real period since having her. I did have a tubal litigation (1 tube couldn’t be fully removed without risk of me bleeding out). But I know that it doesn’t affect periods. I am feeling pain in my spine like I’m reliving the epidural needle. I’m having horrible toothaches too so eating is painful. I don’t know which obgyn I need to see since one my insurance changed and two I didn’t get to see the other one before delivering my daughter. My fibromyalgia is causing me to experience more symptoms such as getting overwhelmed with noises and sounds. I will literally have a panic attack because there is too much going on at once. Like my brain cannot physically handle it. I shut down and scream or I try to leave the room. Having four kids and dealing with this symptom is really really hard on me. It’s hard to be the mom I need and want to be when I cannot be healthy and pain free. I just wanna cry because I’ve been dealing with this crap since I was 18!

Hectic year
This year has had too many downs, but a few ups. Between losing jobs, sickness hitting us left and right, I began to think our lives were starting to fall apart. But the good parts were finding out I was expecting our last daughter, my oldest starting kindergarten, and ending the year with everyone still being here. I am ending the year depressed, overwhelmed, and just plain tired.

C-section Stories
I have never had major surgery in my entire life. I was the most excited when I found out I was pregnant. I had a dream that someone had told me I was pregnant, and said, "Go take a test. You are pregnant." I was in denial because we had been trying for a while, but no luck. I was previously on the depo shot, which I hated. Anywho, I woke from the dream and took a test. It came up positive! I was so excited, nervous, and scared my husband would be upset. But he was just as excited.

Between Me & You poem
"Our Love" By: Megan Godbey The truest love God could ever create for two people, we share. To love and to hold, together our life unfolds. Side by side Why were we only given one heart? It seems like only yesterday it was answered. It's because you have the other piece to my puzzle, my love, my life, my heart, and my soul. Don't forget our love so true. Only God created me for you. Just like the sky is always blue, And the grass is always green. You were made exactly for me.

Life of a Stay-At-Home-Mom
Life as a stay-at-home mom is not for the faint of heart. There will be lots of tears (you and them), lots of screaming, fighting, and of course, hugs. I am a mom of three wonderful, hateful monsters. They fill me with love, anger, sadness, joy, and so much happiness. Honestly, it is the hardest job in the world.
