Even though we talk all the time, I had no idea what struggle you were facing.<br /><br />I guess the main thing I remember about that amazing January nearly seven years ago, was that I was NOT prepared for the immense love that I would have for my grandchild, and I was devastated to leave you all and drive back to NY.<br /><br />You are a wonderful mom, and I am so thankful for you, honey. So thankful that you did not struggle as much after Maeve and Ezra's birth. <br /><br />I thank God for his faithfulness to see you through that difficult time. I love you. madre xoMadrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00094634172610226318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495980279416419723.post-32252729643763947262011-08-04T15:51:30.934-07:002011-08-04T15:51:30.934-07:00I had no idea and I was right there.

I too have three kids, though my oldest is nine. Two little girls and then a boy also. I believe I had hints of what you describe when she was a newborn, though probably milder. The more women who are unashamed to talk about depression will help others find their voice also, so thank you! I worked as an MSW in mental health before my babies, and women seem to feel so guilty admitting that sometimes life after having a baby is TOUGH, and stressful, and terribly lonely. I never really understood until my children were born. May the Lord continue to bless you and your sweet family!stephchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843443097050798717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495980279416419723.post-9149884715776805532011-08-03T17:53:25.089-07:002011-08-03T17:53:25.089-07:00Beautifully written, Michelle!
