Women on the seashore, Paul Gauguin, 1899.
So tomorrow marks my first week of being a mom... and so far it's been wonderful and really lovely, hard to put into words without being too mushy... besides all these moments of wonder- my days and nights have been consumed with breast feeding- (as I know they will continue to be). It has been a steep learning curve for both baby and myself so I thought I would share some helpful links and some "lighter" ones as well. sorry if this is alienating for some... : )
