My baby smiled for the first time today🄺

Well she’s smiled before but normally it’s in her sleep or something… today she smiled while she was wide awake. It was so cute. We got it on film even!!

@anon61987434 been there! Ask your doctor for some exercises to tighten that back up and they’ll help

I remember my baby’s first smile. So precious! Of course, she’s 21 now, but I’ll never forget it

Awesome! Will do!! You aren’t supposed to work out that area till like 6 weeks tho right? Unless you get okayed to start sooner?

@anon61987434 that may be the case but I had the okay to work 22 days after C-section surgery so they may say no but it’s worth to ask the worst that can happen is they say no and give you more information that can be useful to you!

I’ve been feeling so burnt out this last week.
I miss the initial adrenaline.

I still remember my daughter’s first smile too. She had a little owl toy in her moses basket and she seemed to make eye contact with it and then gave this adorable wide smile. We still have that owl lol.

@Twialine oh no, sorry to hear you’re going through so many health issues. I hope the drs can sort things out with your meds and your bloods are back to normal soon.

Is your mum still able to help out? Have you told her you’re feeling really tired?

Yeah, like fevertotell said, can you ask your mom for some help?

Yes, she even took the graveyard shift the other night so I could sleep in my bed (I’ve been sleeping in the living room with bebe)

It helped a bit

Yes the initial adrenaline kept me going I was not tired at first.

I feel like, after having five kids, that it’s more important to dedicate time and effort into the kids you already have, than dream about children that don’t exist yet. I feel if you don’t know if you’re ready to have kids, you probably shouldn’t have any. They are such a huge responsibility. I made sure I was mentally stable before having kids, and it’s still really hard.
