| Mum (Mom) New BnB Member  Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: United States Posts: 7 | New to motherhood/new to BabyandBump Hi, I'm a new mom, and new to this forum. My son is one month old and he is a blessing and a joy. Prior to becoming pregnant, I had been told by my ob/gyn that I would probably never conceive because of PCOS, so the pregnancy was unexpected but a joyful surprise. Years ago I had had a miscarriage and so naturally this time I was nervous it would happen again, but fortunately the pregnancy was fairly easy and without incident...at least until the last trimester when I was placed on bedrest by my doctor. The labor and delivery was a nightmare and I ended up with a c-section, but the important thing is that despite the difficulties, my son is healthy and happy, and he is the light of my husband's and my life.  I'm looking forward to getting to know others here and hope that I can be supportive to others as well as receive support. At this point my main difficulty is lack of sleep...which is to be expected with a one-month old baby, but on the other hand even when he is sleeping I seem unable to get much sleep at all. Everyone tells me to sleep when the baby sleeps, but that is easier said than done. Maybe it's normal excitement about having a new baby? Anyway, I guess that's enough for now and hopefully not too much information for my first post... Take care, Sara123  |
