Separated, new baby, but still hopeful

[newmama]

Thanks for the hug, Cutter. Yep, even eternal optimists experience dark clouds once in awhile!

Today I took S to his dr. appt and met WH there. I looked good, smelled good. The dr. commented that usually moms wear a pony tail at this stage because the babies like to pull hair. I just said "half the time I do"

So after we went back to the car, WH buckled S into his car seat and lingered forever! I said "Okay, we'll see you in the morning!" and WH said "mommy's in a hurry!" and I said that it was just cold is all. Then someone's exhaust fumes started to filter into the car so I said "it's getting stinky in here...we better go!" and WH reluctantly said goodbye to S and told us to take it easy today and he would see us tomorrow.

I think it was good that I was ready to go, BUH BYE WH! and not eager to hang out chatting with him.
