Need mommy friends!
Hey Ladies, I live in Taylorsville and I'm lacking in the friend department lol. Most of my friends don't have kids yet or just have dropped off the map. My LO is 8 weeks old and we want to make new friends!

I feel like a cow! ?
How was labor? I am so scared, I don't want my vag to rip, does it hurt after? I can't even picture how my life will be after having her.
How's mom life? Any advice?

Ftm here in kearns, little girl 4 months old and I ripped minorly but other then the stitches I think the head being pushed out was the worst pain

I went through 16 hours of labor! It wasn't bad because I had an epidural. I had a first degree tear, it wasn't that bad. But I had back surgery Feb 2015 that was bad lol. Being a mommy is so much fun! I'm loving it so much, my DD is perfect and always happy. I'm so grateful. As far as advice goes... really don't know where to start. Always hold your baby, smile and tell them you love them. Feed before baby cries, so when they start stirring or rooting. Don't open every box of diapers (they grow so fast!) So you can exchange them if needed. Brush their hair everyday with a wet brush to prevent cradle cap. And clip nails while baby is sleeping. Lol idk if you needed that much info, I read a lot before I had her so I felt pretty well prepared.

I have a 7 year old and 31 weeks pregnant due in July! I live in Draper and I too have felt the same about my friends... It does get harder when your transitioning to mommy hood!
Even though I have a 7 year old I feel like this is my first pregnancy... It's been super tough and he is are miracle baby.
Never thought I'd be a soon to be mom of two!!

@rayofsunshine801 Thanks for the advice, I just have so much going through my head. I still can't bring myself to picture what mom life would be like for me.

@stephanie OMG, I don't even wanna think about the size of what my baby's head will be.

Being a mommy will come to you when she gets here. It's our natural instinct to care for our young. It will be easy as 1-2-3 ?

@heavan when you are in labor it will all come back to you lol. This is my second pregnancy. I placed my first for adoption 6yrs ago. So our pregnancies are pretty close. It did feel like it was my first time because I forgot how it was! I was afraid of not knowing when she would come, like I would forget what real contractions felt like lol. You know right away haha my water broke this time too. That was a new experience lol they had to pop my water the first time. I think it's soooo exciting to be pregnant and have a baby!
