This is a really weird day. It’s the four year anniversary of my cousin’s death. It’s the one year anniversary of my mom getting breast cancer and also finding out an old friend died of a drug overdose. And today a campaign that means a lot to me and that I’ve been working on for awhile got released. I kind of don’t know what to do with myself. It all just feels so surreal and I’m a mix of all kinds of every emotion.

Do whatever feels right whether that’s taking time off and feeling sad or doing something to celebrate.

Life is weird. I lost family members around Thanksgiving and Christmas a few years ago so it’s a melancholy but also a celebratory time. Wishing you the best ❤️

Mom of two here (21 month old and 5 month old) who is starting to consider having a third. I am in my late 30’s and my doctor just recommended I start trying at 6 months postpartum. I am thinking I want to start closer to 8-10 months postpartum but have no idea what to expect with a third. Is anyone in a similar situation? Moms or Dads of two, do you ever look back and wish you had tried for three? Moms or Dads of three, how was the transition from two to three and how much did life change?

Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?
