Well It's been a while... you know just 4 years. A lot has happened in that 4 years. After my last post I got pregnant the next cycle! I have a 3 year old boy that was born in February 2012. After his birth I struggled with Post Partum Depression (PPD) for about 10-12 months. When he was 15 months old I got pregnant again, and we have another boy that was born in February 2014. I don't really think I had PPD with him, but its hard to tell. We had a wonderful surprise when he was 4 months old and we found out that we were 4 weeks pregnant! I wasn't on any special medication to get pregnant. I guess it's true that you are more fertile right after birth. So with new pregnancy hormones and still post partum hormones I did struggle more with depression with the last pregnancy. I was learning how to be a mom to 2 and I was pregnant with number 3, so thing were really crazy. We now have a baby girl that is currently 5 months old and was born in February 2015. So yes 3 pregnancies ending in February! It's a good month, my birthday is in February along with my niece, uncle, and 3 cousins. Between my 3 kids and my lovely niece my family has birthday parties every weekend. :) I do have PPD this time. I still feel, I am, as well as my family of 5, is learning how to be a family of 5 with 3 kids 3 and under.
We have been through a whirlwind the past 4 years with lots of changes. That is probably my main reason for the lack of posts and forgetting about the blog. I'm excited to start sharing again. With the changes in my life and family I'm pretty sure my choices of posts will change. I feel I will be sharing about my struggle with PPD, my mission to get fit and healthy with making a whole life change, my life and views as a mom, the struggle to learn how to juggle it all, and just anything else that I want to share. I don't have a real structure idea for the blog, so I'm just going to go with what feels right. I invite you to share in my story and my journey through motherhood.
