It's been a roller coaster week between delivering the little one, trying to figure out how to care for him and trying to settle into some semblance of a new norm.
Months of waiting and juggling morning sickness + pregnancy discomforts and the demands that running a climbing gym or gyms bring about finally came abruptly to an end 1 week earlier than expected. They say you need to prepare the older child for the new one that's coming... I'm not sure how much I've managed to successfully do that... handover was messy cos there's just so much stuff you didn't actually realise you were doing until suddenly no one's doing it. Not including all the upcoming projects that you were in the middle of trying to plan for while not knowing what the demands of a newborn might bring about.
Raising C^2 definitely feels like it's physically and mentally steeled me a little with what's to come with raising Elliot. Long sleepless nights spent dealing with situations you're not familiar with. Never knowing whether what you're doing is right or wrong cos it's all just noise that doesn't always make sense. Once in a while, you might get a bit of hope to keep you going from that rare smile / positive review that breaks through all the chaos.
The climbing scene is moving ahead fast this few months... as much as I expect little elliot will grow too. Hopefully the reserve of energy that every mother seem to have will suffice for me in getting through the next couple of years and allowing me to give both babies the headstart they need to make it work in life.
To new experiences everyday~!
