Amanda Jo :
I had no idea if i was going to be up every hour, or if I would sleep at all. The fear of sleep deprivation was what did it for me 😩

For me it was because the nighttime was so unpredictable. The first night home was so rough and I was terrified that we would never sleep again.

Rachel 🌷 :
The first 2 months of my daughter’s life I would cry from like 7-9pm just dreading the night. It was a mix of hormones, and just fear of not knowing

I was completely fine until I saw the sun setting and I would break down in tears because of how much fear I had of the night time

I heard someone say when you feel alone, think of all the other moms in the world up feeding their babies at night. We are never truly alone

Knowing that other moms go through this doesn’t make me feel crazy, I’ve seriously tried to explain this to other people and it makes me feel so crazy

Irene Hernandez :
I remember I would cry inconsolably when the sun would set. My husband would plan an outing at that time so I wouldn’t feel so anxious. But my stomach
