I’m 3w PP and my close family who has seen me and the baby keeps making this comment, my husband makes this comment. He keeps kissing on me and loving me, which is sweet but right now I don’t want someone touching me, in this moment I feel like everyone forgets that I am only 3w PP, I’m tired, I’m nursing all the time, I’m up all night, I’m taking care of a 1yo and trying to balance life. I’m still dealing with hormones, and my boobs hurting from nursing, the stress of keeping these babies healthy as best I can between COVID and going into cold and flu season to protect our cardiac baby until surgery in 2-5mo, it all weighs heavily on me. I am thankful my body bounces back quickly- I know I’m lucky and that’s a huge part of the PP process, but I just feel like no one takes the rest of PP journey into account because of it. And it’s just really hard.

Thanks for listening!
