Adventures in Parenthood

Well, I rarely ever visit this site anymore because the lack of people I know on it. More people I know choose facebook or myspace to keep in touch. But I'll just give an update of my latest and greatest. Me and the Hubby love travelling and our last vaca was to Jamaica (Hedonism III). Loved it. So much so that I came back pregnant. That was a surprise. We had tried 6 months prior but I lost the baby and decided not to try anymore. I was not sure it was what I wanted but I decided to go through with it being that nature decided for me. So the first 3 months were not that great, nauceaus and moody. Then the next 3 months I felt awesome. But the last trimester was very hormonal. I couldn't wait for it to be over. But just when I thought I couldn't wait anymore, I had my precious baby girl, Bella Sun. The first month was very depressing. Breastfeeding is not as easy as it appears. I mean it is if it works out perfect for you. But for me it wasn't. She sucked my nipples raw and incorrectly. She had tongue-tye and we clipped her tongue hoping to fix the problem but her bad habit didn't change and I give her formula now. It has been a very strange trip. I mean this little person was inside me and is apart of me and my husband. I loved her from the moment I laid eyes on her but that first month was depressing, because of hormones and because you realize this is for the rest of your life. I soon got over it and learned to adapt. Now she is over 3 months old and it seems so easy. I do miss my travels but they will come again. She will get older and then we can take her with us on some trips. I just started back at work and my first week was a little rough missing her and knowing someone I hardly know was watching her and taking care of her different then me. She will survive and I have come to realize that. This is only the beginning and I can't be over protective, I have to let her be free like me. Hopefully when she gets older she will adapt to any new situation and make the right decisions (ones I instill in her). I'll have to keep up on this tribe website more. I mean there are really interesting people on her!! ;)
