NEVER asking for help! <br />I have to say when i started into motherhood about 4.5 years ago I was so excited and (still am) and thought my wife and I could do it all! <br />But when my spouse was diagnosed with postpartum I had to throw up the white flag and ask for help. I distinctly remember calling my mother in law in tears one day saying I don't know what to do anymore - she was over at my place in no time.<br /><br />It is tough to ask for help, but the bottom line is if we don't take care of ourselves we are no good to anyone!<br /><br />that is what i have learned thus far from being a parent :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05957280217840148425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619984794426934327.post-7250636283183673442011-04-05T20:22:28.372-04:002011-04-05T20:22:28.372-04:00Good for you for calling!!

First, when my weeks-old daughter had colic and I hired a babysitter to watch her 2 or 3 times a week. I would do chores, which I always felt fine about. But sometimes I just tried to relax, and it was hard to let myself do that. The second time was when she turned one. I was still on maternity leave and I enrolled her in daycare 2 days a week. I felt (and feel) superficially guilty about it, but it was very clear that it was very good for both of us. Funny how you feel guilty even when you know you are doing the right thing.

It's probably because I keep the other people in it anonymous while I myself have no shame and don't regret my past. <br /><br />For most people, I would assume they would have to decide if at any point, for any reason, they would feel shame and regret over a post. If those are emotions are present (or could be) I would say whatever is about to be posted is too far.Will Van Stone Jrhttp://theblackbook.blog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619984794426934327.post-36711476024463820732011-03-17T12:56:40.950-04:002011-03-17T12:56:40.950-04:00I love your analogy: "like trying to describe...I love your analogy: "like trying to describe sex to a virgin."

And anyone who ...Yes, this DOES happen to everyone. And anyone who says differently is a liar! <br /><br />Lemme tell you about child #1. He has always been incredibly social. Even as a baby. So when he was about 3, I signed him up for a gymnastics class with two of his friends. Imagine my...surprise when MY child clung to me and SCREAMED the entire time. All the other kids were having a great time while my kid clung and shrieked and wailed.<br /><br />It was awful. I was mortified. And I wondered what was wrong with him. And what was wrong with ME.<br /><br />And with him, it was a phase. He still has anxiety about new things, but not anywhere near that (he's 7 now).<br /><br />But - I would ask your pediatrician anyway. If s/he is not concerned, then there's peace of mind for you. If s/he is concerned, then you can do testing. <br /><br />You are not alone!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14025221975648580117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619984794426934327.post-51705590318849630682011-01-16T20:47:51.305-05:002011-01-16T20:47:51.305-05:00Lia, having read the Maclean's interview this ...Lia, having read the Maclean's interview this week, I agree that TWSJ was a bit harsh, but only a bit.
