Any questions? Comments? Concerns? I just thought I would join because even though my fiance (the father) is around he works and goes to school so I feel like I do all the parenting on my own sometimes. I need ladies to talk to about the stress that comes with being a new parent sometimes. (I work those hours, and go to school and watch the baby almost by myself everyday... it can be really emotional for me.) When Jude was 1 month old I got to go out with a girlfriend to go shopping. A little over two months later I got to go out again with a girlfriend. It was hard because I hadnt had any me time in over 2 months.... Thats why I get stressed.
