I Know You Are Suffering, But...

At the beginning of this downward PPD spiral I wasn’t very open about what was happening to me and told very few people very little about it. I was confused, embarrassed and maybe even ashamed about it. I still am, really, because this isn’t how things were supposed to be!

When I finally opened up about it, I got a lot of support and I am very grateful for those who have stepped up to help. But some just don’t get it and it is really pissing me off!

No, She Is Not Hungry!

O.M.G I need to rant!

I don’t know if this is age related, cultural, a grandma-ism or what but, whatever it is, it needs to stop! It has been happening since baby girl was barely a day old and it is now 10 weeks later. Every single time my child starts to cry or fuss, my MIL asks “Is she hungry?” like it’s the only possible reason she is crying!

She’s a baby. She cries. She cannot use her words yet. And food is not the answer to everything!
