[quote=Anonymous]Look, many new parents ask these questions of themselves in the first year of having a baby. Take a few deep breaths. Being who you are will come back - think about how this is a side trip detour that will help you continue to grow into who you are. Children are in your life forever, but this part where you are wholey devoted to them is short. Use it to ponder, love, journal, and experience new things. As your child grows, your relationship with your partner will change, too. New parenthood is often a shock to marriage and things can get murky and disappointing for the first year. You'll have time again to think about WOHM or SAHM and what both mean for you - and what decisions to make. And you will be able to do month long yoga retreats - how soon is up to you. For now, just realize that this is a different period of your life. I highly suggest lots of pictures and videos of you, your baby, your husband. You will look back on them with a greater joy than you feel now. I felt similar to you after our first child, I now have two. Things change fast - that quote - the days are long but the years are short? It's true. Feel better, take care.[/quote]
