New Mom's

I've finally started making an effort in meeting new mom's and seeking out support.  The hospital I gave birth at hosts 3 meetings a week in which you can bring your baby and talk with other moms.  I didn't go for the first 3 months because life was so incredibly chaotic, draining, and dare I say depressing.  I can't even hardly imagine it anymore... but I can remember A LOT of crying and fussing and squirming and more crying.  Car rides used to be nightmares.  So, I spent a lot of time at home and taking neighborhood walks.  Now that I'm comfortable with taking Luka out I've started to visit some of these groups.  How I wish I had gone sooner.  I could have really used it.  But now I go with my cute, smiling, curious 5 month old and sympathize with the mothers who bring in their 2 week old babies.  Ahhhh.  I've already met one girl who I think I will hang out with.  She has a daughter one month younger than Luka.  I've also joined a private group of moms who meet once a week at each other's houses.  But I think it's important that I find moms that I can identify with.  I'm not sure how much I will have in common with a middle aged women who drives her baby around in a new convertible Audi.  But we'll give it a try.
