AFTER giving birth


I still can't believe I am a mom na talaga. kasi noong bata pa ako, hindi ako mahilig sa baby. period. as in. pero ganun pala talaga yun, once you've given birth, nagbabago ang lahat. Pananaw mo. Paniniwala mo. etc etc etc.

And I admit, dumaan ako sa PPD. ano yung PPD? post partum depression. Kasi after 7 days of giving birth, sobrang hindi pa ako nakakarecover sa bagong ako. As in feeling ko kawawa ako. Palagi puyat sa baby. Hindi pa continuous ang milk supply. Tapos wala pa asawa ko. Oo, kasama ko parents ko, tinutulungan ako ng mga pinsan at mga tyahin ko pero iba e. Nagself pity ako. Yes, I cried 2 days in a row for reason/s I really don't know. Thanks to my mom at inalalayan nya ako. She cancelled all her appointments to be with me and for that I am forever grateful.

4 weeks have passed like a blur. You will never notice that time passes you by so swiftly all because of the intricacy of your newborn baby and your new self. In other words, hindi mo hawak ang oras. Instead, time is controlling you. Pero as days passed by, nagagamay ko na ang pagiging bagong ina. Nagkakaron na kasi ng routine.

Ganun pala yun, mas maiintindihan mo ang nanay mo kapag naging nanay ka na din. Totoo nga ang sabi nila.
