Baby #2

Well, yet again I slacked when it came to writing!  So many times I wanted to write but either would quickly forget or not have an opportunity for some quality writing time. That has been the case since being pregnant, giving birth to, and parenting my second child. To begin with, the pregnancy went well. There were many woes to be had such as yucky morning sickness, indigestion, and plenty of aches. But all in all no complications. I ended up choosing to have a c section as I didn't want the horrible experience of being induced a second time. It was the right decision for me as it went well. Such a weird experience to be alert during the surgery but tolerable! And I got a beautiful baby girl!  The recovery process was rough but I knew to take it easy. So hard to do though!  Especially with a 3 year old and limited help available!

I can say that it was helpful to have previous experience from our first to be a guide in dealing with our newborn girl. BUT....she was different from my first so still went through the getting to know her ways phase.  By different i mean more demanding and less easy going than our first. It's inevitable to compare the two!  I can say that the newborn phase is my least favorite stage given the many demands.  It doesn't mean I don't love my babies.  It's just a major time of adjustment with significant demands on physical and emotional well being.

I can say that it's definitely more challenging to have a baby when also taking care of a preachooler!  But after reflecting on the journey to get to this point I feel very blessed to experience parenthood with having two children! It has all been so worth it!
