Last Tuesday, Nov. 24 at 10:34 am, we welcomed my first baby boy into the world. So far, it's going well, considering how tired and worn out I am. Dare I say, I might be getting used to it though?? He's a pretty cool baby, not too fussy and so far he's getting good reports. I have never been as scared and nervous in my life (including times when I was about to perform or interview or speak in front of a large audience) as I am with my baby. Whoever made up that saying "sleep when your baby sleeps" didn't take into account how paranoid first time mothers are . . . because we ARE. But after 6 nights of little or no sleep, I think I might actually try to rest when the baby rests - which between 2-6am seems to be very little. Let's see how it goes tonight . . .
Meanwhile, this means that in the midst of trying to raise a kid in this crazy world, I have to go back to trying to being healthy!! 2009 was a CRAZY year. I mean, I spent the majority of it gestating a human being. And now it looks like 2010 will be a very challenging year too. Well, hell the rest of my life is going to be challenging. So as soon as my stitches heal and my perineum is good to go, I'm back on my journey. Stay tuned . . . I predict that Operation Eliminate the Baby Weight will be probably even more of a struggle than my regular struggles with Healthy Living . . .
