The weeks after birth are a glorious haze as you settle into a new normal. You’re still tender and healing, and at the same time, you might be feeling oh-so-thankful that your pregnancy and birth are finally over. And now, in the aftermath of all that wonderfully hard work, you’re meeting this new baby of yours - once a part of you, now apart from you. With time, you’ll get to know this little human and all of their intricacies - in their different cries, in the wrinkle of their fingers, in the various responses to the way you sway or sing. Early postpartum is a time of so many small details and big picture moments that seem to pass in the blink of an eye.
