[quote=Anonymous]Maturity and self-awareness prepared me. I knew I would need help and guidance and had no qualms asking for what I needed. When breastfeeding wasn’t going well in the beginning, I immediately got help, When I couldn’t handle the sleep deprivation any more, I got a night nanny for a couple nights a week. When I went back to work (I work from home) I hired a wonderful educated nanny. DH was ready and took over everything in the house - all cleaning and cooking and errands - and I feed and cuddled my baby. I expected no more from myself than that. Here’s what I didn’t know: I had no idea that I could ever love that much. [/quote]
