Introduction for katinamayhoover
29 came fast , well looking back on my life I can see that it was more of a slow creep. Mom life is about as glorious as a war zone . I don't feel like we are given enough warning about how hard it is . People warn you and give you there 2 cents on how much work it is and the sacrafices you have to make . I wish someone grabbed my by my ears and screamed in my face. Made more of an effort to scare me .Being responsible for a human is really not as fun as I imagined. I am no longer being taken care of, I am the take'r'carer and I have to say it has been a very surreal transition.
I spent my early years not listening to anyone, spending every penny I made on alcohol and other such products and ignoring my health.
Going to pubs and bars , working hungover, staying up late and kissing assholes.
Now with my 30s approaching and my first child present I find myself still not listening to anyone, spending every penny on hydro and diapers and spending my days at librays listening to older women read books to my just about walking offspring. I cashed my late nights in for early mornings and my ability to work hung over into being able to run a household with the flu.
This life I am now responsible for has defiantly made me a better person, I long for the days of being able to sit on my deck and relax my brain and drink away a bad day.

Life is changing and you are growing up. Mother hood is a rewarding phase of your life. It comes as a shock to everyone but normally a welcome experience. If you are depressed go and see your doctor. You don't have to feel this way. Think of your child who only wants to be loved.
