And you bring up a point I neglected to add at the end. If you find yourself crying constantly, if it takes too much energy to do these sorts of things for yourself, see your doctor and tell your family. The gift of a child should be a joyous experience even if it is hard, and so if that joy is not visible, if you can not feel it in your daily experience, this is a serious condition that must be addressed. Medicines do help, as does additional support from the community. Thank you for your story as well. Kiddo,

I've never thought about the Biblical defense for tearing up lists. I'm gonna do that when I get home. Good one, Sherry. I’ve never thought about the Biblical defense for tearing up lists.

We all go through this and all need to hear it. As a mother of 4, my baby blues has gotten worse with each one. Through the support of my husband, friends, God's constant faithfulness, and yes, even meds at times; I've seen that this isn't a shame thing but very normal! This is something many of us go though and we need to be able to talk about it and support each other through it. Sherry, thanks for sharing and encouraging us to embrace our vocation as mothers, knowing that we are human and do struggle, but with God's help, we can press on.
