When I had my first son, I was a frazzled, first time mother that suffered from the baby blues. \u00a0My son was cholici and all I could do was count down the first 3 weeks, first 3 months and the first 6 months. \u00a0Then, I couldn’t wait for him to turn 1 so he could start walking and talking. \u00a0With my first son, it was all about the firsts, and rushing him through them all instead of enjoying the NOW.<\/p>\n
That’s why I vowed to cherish every moment with my second son. \u00a0I wouldn’t rush anything. \u00a0Instead, I wished for time to slow down and even stop. \u00a0I tried to remember every little detail about his first moments of life (which we had documented by a birth photographer) to his first few days and weeks. \u00a0The first month went by too fast. \u00a0I felt like I was losing my newborn too quickly.<\/p>\n
Now that my third son is here, instead of worrying too much about not enjoying the moment or rushing time by, I’m trying not to over analyze any of it. \u00a0In fact, I don’t have the time. \u00a0My two older sons’ demands are much louder and timely than that of my newborn’s cooes and ahhhs. My newborn spends most of his time eating or sleeping (easy compared to two VERY active\u00a0kids).<\/p>\n
While I honestly didn’t think that there’s anything cuter than a newborn, within the first week’s of my newborn son’s life I discovered I was wrong. \u00a0While my son is cute and sweet and unbelievably “yummy”, I found something that makes my stomach turn and ache in a way I never could have imagined.<\/p>\n
