Parenthood – A Rollercoaster Ride

From the day you learned about your baby to the day you held her for the first time, it is an emotion one can hardly explain. Your baby smiling for the first time, learning to crawl for the first time, or even calling you ‘mom’ for the first time, are such intense moments of joy, that you encounter in this roller coaster ride of parenthood.

An overwhelming sense of anxiety that hovers around you, seems to change with every new age and stage. Feed on demand. Put him on a schedule. Comfort him immediately. Change his diapers. Tuck him in bed asleep. Use a swing. So many commands to follow!
