Motherhood appears to be all about learning, for you and for her. <BR/>*hugs*Melhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16914742489846963185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496713179043231092.post-15798164645376715802008-09-21T15:44:00.000-07:002008-09-21T15:44:00.000-07:00I'm beginning to think that guilt comes with the territory of motherhood. I have those very same feelings on a daily basis. But when I'm really down on myself I think about the fact that she's been here for 8 weeks and I've managed to keep her alive and content so far. And if I can handle it now while she can't speak to me in words then I've got to get better at some point, right?<BR/><BR/>A girl can hope. <BR/><BR/>Hang in there.

Don't be so hard on yourself.<BR/><BR/>It all seems new because it is!! You and Maya are still figuring it all out.<BR/><BR/>She eats, she sleeps, she poops - all sounds pretty normal to me. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I am also very sure that EVERY mother in the world wishes their baby to sleep so they can get things done (or sleep themselves).<BR/><BR/>Don't be so hard on yourself - your baby is beautiful, you are obviously doing a wonderful job.<BR/><BR/>Sharonmybabyquest.wordpress.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09315479294329157893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496713179043231092.post-4961126669764419142008-09-19T13:59:00.000-07:002008-09-19T13:59:00.000-07:00Oh Hilary- I am at 13.5 weeks and STILL feel this very same way. I think this is just "part of hte ride" as they say. Just remember, you said if fussy, you find things that need fixing - and if you get um fixed - you are doing the job perfectly!

You just have to do the best you can and try to remember that you are Maya's only mom, so to her, you are perfect.<BR/><BR/>And there is NOTHING wrong with wanting your kid to sleep so you can shower. Seriously. You will be a better and happier mom for Maya if you take good care of yourself. Remember that.<BR/><BR/>And the regular showering? Also doesn't get much easier :)Jennihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03776942311638100226noreply@blogger.com
