5 days postpartum 🫀🫂 I’m going through all the ups and downs while trying to process my completely different life. The baby blues have hit me hard. I cry over every little thing, when he cries, his first bath, thinking about him growing up… everything. It’s not necessarily a sad feeling or a happy feeling. It’s just a wave that I have to ride. I’m learning to sit in the emotion and let myself feel it, knowing it will pass. Sometimes all it takes is a cuddle from Luke or a few deep breaths to help me through it. Aside from the postpartum blues, my body is still recovering. It was hard learning how to walk again, how to shower, I even realised I had taken simply sitting on the toilet seat for granted. I went for my first short walk today. It felt amazing, but after 10 minutes I was completely done. So, I’m taking baby steps and learning how to navigate this new body of mine. But I am so in love. His smell. His tiny fingers and toes. His little cries and noises. His beautiful face that I could stare at forever, and often find myself tearing up over. I’m so deeply in love with him. It feels like my life has only just begun. #postpartum #postpartum #newbornbaby #newborn
