That is a perfect description. Even if you're ready to run out of the house screaming, you sill manage to come up with plenty of hilarity. A furious raisin. That is a perfect description.

"Sense of Duty" to pretend.... Totally felt that way when Jacob was a newborn. It's a horrible feeling, but just like you wrote in your blog entry, one day you realize that somewhere along the way, you fell in love and now you are no longer pretending and you are officially crazy about your baby.

My children were babies long before the internet "support group" was around and OMG the guilt I went through feeling the same way about my newborn, I never told anybody and thought I was the ONLY one in the world who ever felt that way about their precious baby. Pain of childbirth? yep... Don't remember it. Pain of feeling like a horrible mother because I was not "in love" with my needy fussy newborn every moment of the day?... It still lingers to this day. So THANK YOU for being open, honest and "out there". :) Kelly No, It’s not an awful thing to say, and kudo’s to you for saying it!

Newborns are needy and don't sleep. Its especially hard when you have an older one too. It took me 6 months to get used to having two kids instead of one. :D You sound like you are doing great! Riley and Dylan are cuties. I think that moms who say they enjoy every moment with their newborns are insane or on drugs. Newborns are needy and don’t sleep.

TRUE THAT. Double true. And clouded memories of early infant caretaking? HELLS YAH. We wish it were filled with love and gauzy lighting instead of the constant post-partum nightmare of the gross body we have to inhabit, while sleep-deprived and covered in sour milk spit up. The good news is that you know it gets better. The smiles are coming! The laughs!!
