If I could characterize the last 4 months with one word it would be, “alone”.
When I went on bedrest, it was a long 5 weeks (was it 5 weeks?). I was scared and overwhelmed at the prospect of having Isaac too early. I had some friends that helped out, but for the most part, I didn’t hear from many people.
Now, I’m in the middle of the crazy newborn/post-partum time. It seems like Isaac needs to eat all the time or wants to be held and that makes it really hard to go anywhere that I will be the only adult watching the kids. It’s just a really lonely time.
