Dd/lg and parenting

Pregnancy is hard because for me I felt sick all the time. With my second kid I had an issue with my hips and was in pain a lot. Their first year is incredibly hard. I was also on bed rest for both of them because for some reason I get high blood pressure the moment I'm pregnant. Breastfeeding is pretty much when I feel the least little ever especially when they're teething or going through a sleep regression and you're up for the 5th time that night and it's only 3am.

They're both toddlers now and it's fun. I stay home with them and we get to go to the aquarium and do arts and crafts and watch cartoons together. I imagine it'll get harder as they get older and grow out of the little things I enjoy.

The hardest part is lack of time for yourself. You can't just do what you want anymore. Everyone will tell you that, but actually experiencing it is something else. Sleep deprivation can be insane too. After my second was born it got so bad once I was hallucinating.

Even after all of that they're the best part of my life. We have so much fun it's incredible.
