Not very long ago, very frequently I would make fun of momma's complaining that their children are not eating at all. But recently I found myself doing the same, albeit without much of my knowledge. Our baby Ada is home for the last two and half months. These two and half months have been a huge turning point in my life.
In November 17th, the agency called us saying that a 11 days old baby girl has come and if we would like to adopt her. My immediate response was a big yes without giving much thought. After sometimes the thought started percolating in and the thought of arranging logistics started sinking in. I was getting in touch with my mom and I in-laws regarding a full timer at home. Then the nervousness about handling a small baby all by myself. I have heard horror stories of babies crying all night long, parents going into depression and so on. But we went ahead during last week of January 2014' camped about a week, but the agency, lawyers with vested interest turned us down until till a later date. Only after extracting some money, they called us the next week to come and take the baby. I went again with my parents for a day and got the baby with us. Ever since life has changed completely. From a free spirited person I became a mom!!
I have heard that moms cry when the baby's are taken for blood test. What a surprise i cried too when ada was getting her blood taken for a test. I am talking often these days about Ada not eating well! Is this the mom syndrome. I have successfully now inherited the mom syndrome.
