January 4th, 2021 I birthed my son 7 pounds 6 ozs of pure handsome. I felt relieved, no more back aches, no more big belly, no more weird cravings. After birth make those things seem so little. Nobody told me about the different body, the bleeding constantly 6 weeks straight, the stitches, the depression, the anxiety. Postpartum took a toll on me I walked out the hospital a miracle. Just 1 week before I was going in to give birth, which turned into a death and came back situation. I thought after having my baby , I would've been able to see life through. I was wrong I went home just to be pulled into a traumatic disaster. Imagine going home and your mom not knowing you. Imagine having to be on your own for 7 months, because your mom goes into a hospital on death's doorstep for 5 months then a nursing home for 2. Imagine thinking your one parent you feel safe round comes home and nothing is the same. I mean argument after argument, fight after fight, the jealousy, the envy, the negativity. Till it draws you being put out the only place you know is home with a damn near newborn. Imagine moving somewhere you don't feel welcomed but you'll do anything for your child because you realize life isn't about just you anymore. It came to that point I know what I had to do and what I wanted done with my life.
