Dear Uterus,
My mother in law left this morning, and I said goodbye to Mom and Dad tonight. They are leaving early in the morning tomorrow to head home.
We talked a lot yesterday about the parts of the hospital stay that I wasn't really 'there' for. Hearing everyone else's perspective pieced things together for me. I teared up yesterday, realizing how things must have been for the people that weren't unconscious.
Tonight I teared up because every one was going, and I know things are going to start hitting me now. I've been kept very occupied the last day and a half. Now it's back to normal life, except I don't know how to continue on with normal life when all my plans for the next few years have been taken away.
I was going to pump breast milk for a year-- that's another letter-- wean, get healthy and start taking prenatals in anticipation for the 2 year post partum mark where we would start trying to conceive our next baby.
Now... well... I don't really know what comes next.
