Mommy is: crazy happy, incredibly tired (how do you live on 3 hrs of sleep a night and no naps???), terribly happy to have the hubby being the best dad ever, super emotional on the turn of a dime, and on day three of exclusive breastfeeding . . . and loving it when it works well and hating it more than anything when it's problematic. So, all in all, I think this is normal. (Yes?)
Love. Love. Love.

Congratulations to you, hubby and little Nathaniel! He is ADORABLE! I have to get my virtual baby fix wherever I can...I've been checking back all day! God bless!
He is ADORABLE!!! Congratulations! What beautiful pictures :)
You both look amazing! Breastfeeding gets easier (in my experience) as do the emotions. Hang in there. You made a person! You rock!
Congrats to you guys! He's adorable!!

Ahhhh!!! He's here! He is so incredibly adorable and precious. You look so genuinely happy, and you are glowing. Congratulations, Candice. I am so happy for you. :)
I got teary reading this simple post! He's beautiful and delicious and you look amazing in that photo with him! So happy and glowing! Yay. I remember how intense those first days and weeks were. And emotions were so up and down and bursting out at the sides. (they do level out!) Doesn't breastfeeding rock? It was so much greater than I imagined. Very happy for you!
Thanks everyone!
Congrats! He is gorgeous....and I love the name!
