I was anemic and had just barely missed having a blood transfusion. I remember crying in the middle of the night at the hospital and feeling like I had been robbed of "easy childbirth," which was what all my girlfriends had had! It took me a few weeks to get in the mama groove. With my second it was much much easier but then her birth was much easier on me physically.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for being so honest!BlondeMomBlog (Jamie)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11678207937709971411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11653780.post-26453788547883128762007-12-13T04:35:00.000-06:002007-12-13T04:35:00.000-06:00How wonderful that you posted this.
