This is the beginning post of a series called "Help a Momma Out" where some of the most challenging parts of motherhood are addressed. Guest posts from mommas who know will be included, and although regular posts and crafts will be interspersed, this series will go on for a couple of months.
HMO (Help a Momma Out) # 1: Why is this so hard? Adjusting to a new baby
As a mom of four, I have struggled often enough , and yet I clearly remember the upheaval that was adjusting to baby number one.
Not all moms deal with that. Some of my friends say their first was by no means the hardest transition, and that they kinda sailed through. Did they have newborn siblings growing up? Maybe their personalities are such that not much ruffles them. I have no idea.
What I do know is, at one point or another, most of us have to deal with giving up our spot as numero uno to a baby. That's not easy.
