When I first became a mother, I was completely overwhelmed. Not by that “What now?” moment that everyone else seems to have once they get home from the hospital, but by the fact that I now had another person who needed me all the time.
It’s reassuring to note that other mammals feel the same way: Here’s a sad story about an overstressed panda mom.

um that story was creepy.
I think it’s sad. Maybe I’m a little too empathetic. Or just pathetic. 😉
