Things We Wish Someone Would've Told Us About Postpartum Life

"I could not stop crying to save my life. I could pull it together for long enough to show off the baby to friends, then I was in my car, just raining tears down my face.

It all passed, of course, but man — those first few months were hard." - Lane B.
