Filed under: life | Tags: Naptime is the New Happy Hour, Stefanie Wilder Taylor
I just finished up Naptime is the New Happy Hour by Stefanie Wilder Taylor. I read her previous books a few months back. I admit it. I enjoy the cynical mommy books. Makes me feel validated when I happen to have similar thoughts. This is the quote in the book I was able to relate to most…
“You thought it would be different, right? You thought once the first deliriously draining, sleep-deprived, sex-deprived first year was behind you, you would get back to some semblance of normalcy, right? Not so fast my friend. In fact, let’s all have a good laugh at how delusional we were.”
Seriously. I thought that it would be hard for a little while, then get easier. It hasn’t. It has changed. But it hasn’t gotten easier. It’s gotten to be a ton harder in completely different ways. Yea, I was delusional.

Yup, you’re right! It changes…but it doesn’t get easier. High need babies are in a league of their own!
But don’t you agree that the happy times are SO happy that it makes you kinda forget (or accept) how hard it is? Kinda…sometimes…
