After speaking with a few other mother's, (who I will not name name's) I have decided I am not the only one out there so here I am writing about the upcoming birth of our second child. After a particularly long day at home with the munchkin, I was washing my face before bed and a thought just popped into my head, how I couldn’t wait to have someone wait on me hand and foot, get to sleep the day away, meals in bed, and a few moments to myself wating television that is not Dora, Mickey or anything else on the Disney channel. What is this great place I was thinking off, you’re asking yourself……………………..my hospitals stay for baby number 2! Don’t get me wrong, there is no job in the world I love more than being fortunate enough to stay home with my Liv, and I never ever dreamed I would love it as much as I do…but boy am I looking forward to a few days of peace and quiet (with the exception of a newborn crying). I thought I was the worst mother in the world for even thinking these thoughts, until I brought it up to another mother who whole heartily agreed. I then started asking all of my mom friends and much to my surprise, everyone was in unison. Steve will be bringing Olivia in to visit, however with her schedule and lack of family around Steve will be on his own with her day and night for the majority of my stay. I am already thinking about what cute flannel pajamas to wear, whether or not to book a post natal massage at the hospital, and if I can somehow bribe someone for a glass of pinot. Sure I have to go through the pain of giving birth, the lovely after effects, but hey bring on the contractions because this Momma is ready!!
