"My Heart Monster" |
It
was January 2015 when I started this blog. Though I am no expert writer but I
did it with great passion and love, never to abandon it. And today I am back
here after almost 5 months. Motherhood took over everything in my life. What a
rewarding feeling to hold your baby in your arms, it is no less than bliss.
From
a full time working woman, right now I am a full time mom on an extended
maternity leave. Motherhood is a roller coaster ride. There are moments of
happiness and some lowness too. Babies, they want every molecule, every atom of
their mothers, they don’t spare even an inch. You have no free time left for
yourself. Sometimes even going to the loo seems like a task to be done. You
have to hold on and on and on.
I
have faced it all from pregnancy complication in last trimester to post-partum
depression, issues with breastfeeding, colic baby all this and more with least
amount of support. I think mentally I wasn’t prepared or never gave a thought
to how life would be after baby. I was just too happy to see myself pregnant
after almost a year of trying to conceive.
Things are more sorted now and I have to
just fight the remnants of depression from my life. I have to fight that demon
called sadness and do things which make me happy and fulfilled.
I
have completely lost track of my life, motherhood overpowered me. And now some
serious renovation, designing is needed. I want to regain the strength and
confidence which is hidden over layers of laziness and some junk. I need to somehow spare few moments no matter how
little to ward off boredom and monotony. I am back to my blog and shall stay.
Well
it is almost 12 am and my heart monster shall wake up anytime for mid night
feed, shall post more about how I faced post-partum depression on my next post.
Stay tuned.
