We have a first timer on our hands

Sep 25, 2009

So, I just got into the "blog world". I've heard all about it, but really haven't done much with it. I'm funny and somewhat creative....so I thought I would give it a try!

I got married a year ago and just recently had my first baby; he is 3 months old. Now don't think I had a shotgun wedding (not that there is anything wrong with that) b/c I was preggers....he came early...6 weeks to be exact. I love both my husband and little boy dearly and I wouldn't change anything!! I hope you don't think I am being a Debbie Downer or Negative Nelly when I say what is on my mind next.... Married, Baby...Now What??? Seriously though...

No, I'm not saying what about poor me I don't have my own identity or what is next in my life. Instead I'm saying I just don't know how to handle all this change. It kinda all started like this......

I was having problems adjusting to being a mom and my son wasn't sleeping well (what baby does at 3 months...except for a few of you lucky parents) so I thought I would head to a local bookstore to find some great help book to "teach" me how to handle all of this change. Yeah, they had books that taught you how to bath and change your babies diapers and what to expect next...stuff like that...but no book that said "SHIT, I just had a baby now what?". I wasn't looking for some nice refined guide, instead I wanted someone to be open and tell me what was up and that what I was feeling and going through was normal. Things like, my son hasn't pooped in days and I have to give him a suppository.... help. Nope, no such book.

I know a lot of you feel the same way as I do. Like, how do I go through this ____(insert change in life here). What do I do now? We've all had that feeling and wondered what or where to go to. Yes, we have our friends, but sometimes even they don't have the answers. I'm not claiming that I'll have the answers, but rather more questions!!! Feel free to chime in whenever.

So, this Blog is going to be dedicated to helping those moms, wife's, girlfriends, and friends, that want real, raw, and honest advice. I want you to act like this blog is your bestest friend in the entire world.

Whew....that felt good.
