Oh, thank you. This is my husband and I's first baby. Baby boy, born in January. We were doing great as new parents who knew nothing of what they were doing.
My only complaint was that I am a very type A person and I hadn't slept in a while. And so it was about a week after giving birth. And I noticed that my mother-in-law, who is usually very active on social media, hadn't posted anything about the baby being born. And I should have just let it go. Not a big deal at social media.

But there was some little person inside of me saying, we need to investigate. So... I talked to my husband and he gave her a call. So both sets of parents, we were lucky enough to have them at the hospital when the baby was born.

And he had mentioned to everyone who are loving to take a lot of photos with their cell phone cameras, like, please don't post anything on social media until we've had a chance to tell our friends and family. So that way they're not finding out on Facebook that he's been born. So again, it had been over a week at this point. And so when he called to check in about why she hadn't posted, she said...

Well, like I know you had said at the hospital that this was something that you didn't want us doing. And I just feel like I've been put in Facebook jail. And my husband was like, well, I'm so sorry for the miscommunication. We really just meant like the first 24 hours. Please, this is your debut to let everyone know that you have a grandbaby. You know, got off the phone, told me about that.

I had honestly kind of forgotten about it. And later that evening, my husband encouraged me to like go take a nap. That first week you are awake with them, like, especially as the mom feeding every two hours schedule. And so I had not gotten more than, I'm not exaggerating, probably 45 minutes of sleep at a time for like that full week.

And so he was like, we've got milk stored up, go put on one of your podcasts, go to sleep. So I wake up two hours later, I had put my phone on airplane mode so that no one could wake me up. I was like, I'm going to mentally rest. And I wake up, I turn it off like airplane mode.
