I watched her start to crawl up on me. I saw her carefully placed hands, elbows, and knees avoid all my “problem” areas. The spots she had accidentally dug into a million times that she knows will make yelp. She made it my lap, laid her head on my chest, and looked up into my eyes.

What’s the answer? Are we supposed to never break eye contact with our children, maintaining an exact distance of five feet, following at this distance outside all day away from all things digital (they aren’t going to need that stuff to survive in our society anyways), while making sure we are emotionally available to them by which we mean teaching them to be tough (no more whiney baby snowflakes) and not discussing mental illnesses?

Often when we are contacted about our postpartum packages it is by someone who has dealt with postpartum mood disorders with a previous birth, someone who knows their life is too busy to handle on their own, or a friend/family member of a birthing individual.

Guys, I have a really big (you’ll get why that’s funny in a second) secret to share with you.
I’m FAT.

I remember all my life being told I was too much.
I laughed too hard, too often, and too loudly. I talked too loudly too. I was too smart, too opinionated, and too bossy. I worked too hard and made other people look bad. I was too different. I cared too much, worried too much, and cried too much. I wore too much eyeliner and listened to my music too loudly.
