the newborn haze ☁️ clouded mind, aching body, sleepless nights… in between the euphoria, the gratitude, the disbelief that she is mine. it’s tears and prayers and middle-of-the-night feedings. it’s introducing myself to my body yet again, day after day, in all of its changes. it’s falling in love over and over — with myself, my daughter, my partner, my family. it’s the miracle that is life and our innate ability to love someone so new, so infinitely. it’s creation and growth and heaven’s way of saying hello, i’m here. it’s the single most beautiful, fleeting feeling i’ve ever known, in all of its hard days and all of its best days.
