My birthing story is a little bit one of those "nobody neared death, yet it was still from hell" ones too. I didn't leave the house for three months, but just watched Friends (while lying down) and vomited for the first three months...maybe I will just hug other people's kids a lot. :) I feel exactly the same.

I have so many of the same thoughts. My birth situation was considered "complicated," but I somehow had the out-of-body thing where it didn't seem real. When it was done, I didn't know if it was 4 in the morning or afternoon! My real quandry is having an only child. I have a sister, and I can't imagine life without her. I have this guilt that if I don't have another kid, I'm robbing my son. But I want to travel too, and darnit, it's easier with one child! And I'm old. Let's not forget that. Oh, gosh!
