It’s all coming together. First, the pregnancy. Then, the right “midwife trapped in the body of an OBGYN” doctor. Now, the doula. I am so excited for a second chance at childbirth & am assuming a lot more responsibility this time. I am reading more. Learning more. Talking about it more & making sure to surround myself with the people that will help me have the experience that I hope for. It’s a huge do-over. Like so many other aspects of being a mother.
I never seem to get anything right the first time. But…I try, try again. & I think that is why I end up having success. It’s certainly not because I don’t fail. It’s because I keep learning & keep trying new things. ESPECIALLY with my dear sweet two year old. Need a reminder you’re not perfect? Have a baby. It pretty much makes you laugh at perfection. At least it does for me. & it’s been one of the biggest places for growth in my personal life.
Accepting the do-over. On a daily basis.
& enjoying the opportunity to learn & grow.
