Finally heard from S – her baby boy was born after 53 hours of labour. She managed to hold out that long and avoid a c-section. He’s perfect and she’s deliriously in love. There’s nothing like those first days with a newborn. Made me envious. Then it started snowing and my usual headache from bad shoulder tension cracked my skull open and Jake had major tantrums when I tried to put him down for his nap (twice). Third time lucky, but only after crying myself. Some days everything just seems like crap trying to break you down. Life goes on regardless.
