I’m going to say what I said on instagram…because it’s the truth:
This week has been good, despite nothing more than four consecutive hours of sleep. I’ve read & read and accepted my Everett the way he is & mothered him through a new set of eyes. He’s responded so well. He is happier & so am I. High Needs babies are special. And exhausting. But I’m choosing to see him for who he is and changing to provide him what he needs, not what I think he should need.
Ahhh. Here’s to a few less tears.
Cheers.
