[quote=Anonymous]This is a huge transition, and it sounds like you need to devote some time and energy to working through it. If anything is causing you so much pain that it is interfering with your day-to-day life, it's time to talk to a counselor. Start to explore your identity beyond motherhood. I say this as someone whose MIL let her struggles of this nature have a real negative impact on our relationship. That didn't have to happen...start talking about these feelings with your husband, a few close friends, a professional. Work through your grief so you can enjoy the fruits of your hard work: three awesome self-sufficient kids.[/quote]
