This is one of the best and most accurate things I’ve ever read about what it feels like to have a brand-new baby. And Edith I gasped at your mom referencing Little Fur Family, one of my son’s favorite books. “Bless you, my child” 😭 I’m so glad you’re doing well and letting all these feelings come. The fear being the flip side of the love is SO RIGHT. I felt that way too. It gets so much easier in that department. The love gets better and better and the fear gets a lot easier, or goes away, or you grow to be able to handle those feelings without walking around being so scared. Thank you so much for sharing all this. ❤️❤️❤️

This is so beautiful on so many levels, Edith. (Totally crying!)
