Confessions of a New Mom

I...

• Still sleep with my pregnancy pillow (body pillow).
• Sometimes miss being pregnant...and then I remember how uncomfortable I was, never mind.
• Still take naps when Emerson sleeps.
• Got so used to wearing new clothes when I was pregnant that I now want an all new post-pregnancy wardrobe.
• Have found a miracle weight lose program where I get to eat whatever I want and shed pounds every week. It's called breastfeeding. 
• Find myself singing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" to myself even when Emerson is not with me.
• Sometimes rock  myself to sleep out of habit.
• Look forward to bedtime. Hurry up 9 p.m.!
•  Am getting used to eating with one hand and doing laundry, and cleaning...
• Have checked on my son to make sure he was still breathing while he was asleep.
• Am going bald! Well, not completely bald yet, but definitely have bald spots. No one tells you that you will lose all your hair after having a baby.
• Get excited to go to Babies R Us and see what cool toys they have.
• Am not as excited to start solids like I thought I would be. There are too many rules! 
• Love my son more than I ever thought possible...especially when he pouts, it is just too cute.
