So, I am thinking lately of the things that I have realized over the past year, well longer than that, but since this whole thing started. So, in no particular order:
1. people who shouldn't have multiple kids seem to have no problem doing so, while those who would make good parents have the issues.
2. either my pain tolerance really sucks, or there are a lot of women out there who totally kick ass...and I"m not one of them. no epidural, not an option
3. stretch marks appear AFTER you give birth...ahhhh, so I wasn't out of the woods
4. giving yourself a shot only hurts if you do it wrong
5. medicine is not a science, it's a crapshoot
6. all parents should have to go through what adoptive parents have to go through...AND "just adopting" is bullshit. First of all it's an upwards of 20k, you have to write an insane resume and history of your life (and partners), you have to be okay'd by the agency, a social worker, and the birth mom, and you still deal with ignorant people.
7. people judge for stupid reasons
8. its really hard to breastfeed, even when the books say you are an idiot if you can't do it.
9. I'm never going to lose the weight.
10. there is no limit to the number of baby shows on TLC that I am willing to watch during the day.
