The answer to almost all of those is I don’t know. While I don’t plan on over-posting our baby’s face around the internet or being impatient, I’m going to be new to the “mommyhood.” I’ve never been a mom before so, admittedly, I don’t know a whole lot. I hear that’s what it’s like for most first-time parents, though.
Many people tell me it’s instinctual and that it’ll all come to me naturally. And while I hope that’s the case, it’s sort of scary not knowing what the experience will be like. It’s another first for me, and firsts can be scary. It’s scary thinking I might mess some things up. That I’ll be constantly learning. I honestly would love to be the perfect parent to our little one but I know that’s not humanly possible.
What I do know is I will love him endlessly and try to be the best mom I can be for him every single day.
