Random Thoughts

My life turned 360 degrees when I got married and got pregnant. It was unplanned. My baby is a surprise blessing. I was working abroad then enjoying my life as a teenager, splurging on gadgets, buying branded clothes, bags etc. Then suddenly I got pregnant. My husband now and I were not really girlfriend and boyfriend that time we just have a mutual understanding. Then suddenly 'boom' I got pregnant. I had to stop working and I went back home. We got married. I had a very sensitive pregnancy. I had to stay home. It was really difficult. I don't have money on my own. I can't go out. I gave birth and again had to stay home to take care of my baby. We did not hire any nanny. When I look at myself in the mirror, I ask myself "what happened to you?". The transition is very hard. I had the hard time accepting the fact that I am already a parent. I suffered from postpartum depression for like more than six months.  But little by little I learned how to embrace and love my new career as a MOTHER. Hard at first but with the help of my husband, the love of my baby, my parents I am a new me. I am in the process now of getting back my old self. Home is where my heart is and I am home with my husband and my baby.
