Don't Worry, Be Happy!!!


The greatest changes in my life was the birth of my son. Although I had a sufficient psychological preparation and well planning to brought him to the world, but it also made me feel nervous and worry to become a new mother. It is because that is my first baby, I didn't have any experience to take care a tiny baby. I put too much pressure and expectation for myself to take a good care of him and to became a perfect mother, so it brought me some stress to adjust to a new situation; but I think this stress is positive and useful to keep me involved with life and parental responsibilities. I think stress is a very common for most of the people, but the most important thing is to find the best way to release the unpleasant feeling. To become less tight, I like to listen some soft music and practice yoga; it helping me to rest and become less anxious. To become a mother is the big event of my life, I enjoyed that great changes, even though it made me has busy feeling sometimes; but it also brought me a lot of fun and pleasure!!!

Being a mother is absolutely the greatest change in our life. We had a brand new life after the child was born. Though there are lots of worry and pressure, we gain more pleasure.

Your son is very prettiness. I have similitude feel with you. There are one sentence that I like in China:”become a human is difficult, become a woman is more difficult, become a profession woman is the most difficult”. Wish you and the woman of all happiness!

Karen,
Your son is absolutely adorable, and I'm sure you are a wonderful mother -- but yes -- being a mother can be a very stressful situation!
