I'd like to know when

When will Anneliese figure out that sleeping longer than 3 hours is a good thing?
I'd like to know when my nipples will stop feeling like they have road rash.
I'd like to know when I will go a day without crying.
I'd like to know when I'll stop feeling guilty. Guilty about not being able to breastfeed. About having to go back to work & leaving Anneliese at daycare.
I'd like to know when I will be able to blow my nose without peeing.
I'd like to know when my stomach will no longer hang over my pants & when it will stop doing the jello dance when I walk.
I'd like to know when it will stop feeling like I birthed a semi.
I'd like to know when I'll stop being overwhelmed by the feeling of love I have for this tiny human.

  1. :o) Aww.. some of those things, I still don't know, 6 months later. There will always be things we won't be able to figure out... just as soon as we do, there's something else that comes along. It's all part of the wonderful ride :o) She's so adorable though!!! Love her!

  2. Probably around 3 months old or so.
    Good question - probably not until you stop pumping.
    Another good question - probably not until Fi makes you laugh so much during the day, you'll forget to cry.
    You'll stop feeling guilty after about a month of taking her to daycare and you realize how much fun she's having there.
    Not sure about the peeing thing.
    Ditto on the stomach thing.
    That feeling will fade eventually - give it time.
    Never... but that's a good thing :)
