A couple of my friends feel 'nothing should change' and 'the baby has to fit in with us' and in some have even said 'I feel like running for the hills'....
I don't get it. I just don't get why you'd want nothing to change in your life - when evrything about your life has changed? Why have children? Why must the baby fit in with you? You'd have a lifetime to just look after yourself - now you have a baby , why then not try and do what's best for the baby and not what's best for you? I get it , occasionally you have to take your kids to places and do things that doesn't fit in with their routine - that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the general idea of some people that kids seems to be some kind of 'obstacle' to their 'normal' life.
I just don't get it.
Personally I was ready for the change. I want the best for him. I am not important in comparison.
I don't want to do what I did. We did it for a long time and it was great fun. Now another way of life has started.
I am sure I will be tired and fed up at some point but some of these women feel this way all the time....
I find it so strange!
How can you in any way pretend that you can (or want to) do the same things anymore? If the focus is not on what's best for the baby, then where is your focus? On yourself?
