I put to bed on the 1st of June, 2016 to a cute king! And since then my world has experienced matchless joy. I have smiled, laughed, cussed and of course cried. Yes o, in as much as i am excited about the birth of my son, i have cried. The first few weeks was tiring and overwhelming for me. Baby Kay was always wanting to be cuddled, still does. Day time, he is awake. Night? Still awake. I would breastfeed him, hoping he would go to sleep and yes he would but the moment i drop him in his cot, his eyes are wide open again. Ha, this child of mine! Most times i get so overwhelmed with my emotions that i will start crying. But thankfully, this past night he slept all through! Can someone shout Halleluyah!!! I pray and hope this trend continues.

Being a mom is great! Knowing you are responsible for someone. Like you will be held accountable. The feeling is not something one can explain. I had a tough pregnancy, a painless contractions until the doctors decided to change it for me by inducing me all in the name of wanting the labour to be fast. I saw pain in all it's embodiments. But all that is of no importance now. People say when you give birth, you forget about the pain of childbearing but i do not think it's true. You do not forget, i did not! Infact i remember it vividly and it always play back in my head and each time it does, i shiver. No one forgets, it just doesn't matter anymore.
It's been 8weeks since Baby Kay came into this world and i have been blessed being his mom! Our journey has just started! Stay tuned with us and please give us tips on how to make this work.
Being a mom is a job you learn on the go. I do not want to make avoidable mistakes.
Lots of Love,
Oma!
