Motherhood
I am not a supermom and I am okay (read: totally fine) with it.
I am a C-sectio's mom.
I deliver my little baby with caesar procedure, not normal vaginal birth.
My blood pressure has been too high since 30 weeks (the worst is about 160/110), amniotic fluid has been decreased and twisted umbirical cord condition. Besides, have to admit that I was scared to deliver him normally :)
I combine feeding my baby with breast milk and formula milk.
Since my little one's weight is only 2.39 kg (which is below standard, for baby boy the standard new born's weight is around 2.7 kg) and for jaudice treatment, from the very beginning I was encouraged to give him formula milk on his very first day. I have read that actually new born is able to survive 2 days without any foods but I barely decide to give him formula because I am afraid he will lose more of his weight. I worry too much especially because he is my first son, my first child and I do not want he is starving. So realizing that I have no breast milk to feed him, I can not help to let he is fed by formula on the first 5 days in his life. And after that, still, I can not produce enough breast milk for him so I combine it. I have tried putting so much effort to produce more breast milk. Has consulted to my (may be around 10 friends) to encourage myself giving him full breast milk but still can not manage to produce enough breastmilk to fulfil his needs.
I am a working mom and I have accepted the fact that I should trust others for baby sitting my baby. I have a newborn baby sitter for the first month to help learning how to take care of him and after that I take care of my baby (not all by myself because I was helped by others just like my mom, mother in law, and a servant that I teach to be a nanny). The truth is I really want to be a full time mom but for now, we still can not afford it because we still have a lot of needs to be fulfilled so we still need 2 breadwinners and safety net.
I used to have a high standard about ideal mom, and scared to death if I am not capable enough to accomplish that high standard. But now? I do care but not too much. As long as he is growing well and healthy, I am fine.
And yes, I am not supermom and I deal with it. Happy mommy, happy child.
