Dude being a parent is the HARDEST thing anyone will ever do.

People that don't agree are either wealthy or full of shit with horrible children IME.

To anyone reading this: It is A-OK to feel what you feel (regret, guilt, fear, etc) its what you do with those feelings that matter.

The first year of parenthood is absolutely miserable with the lack of sleep and quick milestones changing (for the better, usually) the routines.

It. Gets. Better.

But its work and you gotta take care of you. Cant pour from an empty cup, etc etc.

Build a support network and use it.
