My Complex

Ever since I had a baby I have had a bit of a superiority complex, I admit it, no questions asked. I feel like I had an exceptional pregnancy, I had no morning sickness, no bad mood swings, and none of the other common unpleasantries of pregnancy. Not only did I have an easy pregnancy, but I feel it was really healthy as well, I only gained 30 pounds, I had no complications and I was even able to Travel overseas to Australia a few weeks before Aiden was born. And to add more my labor experience was great, my labor wasn’t bad, and I didn’t have any of the awful things happen during Aiden’s birth either. I recovered extremely well, and I was up and walking 15 minutes after he was born. I was in class 3 days later too!!! And just to gloat, my baby had an easy time breastfeeding, we never had a problem, and trust me there are TONS of breastfeeding problems, I work on a post-partum floor I see a huge assortment of problems. So now that all that is covered, my baby has gained weight perfectly (he has always been right about the 50th percentile, although his head is big, only because he’s so smart;) I am also really proud of myself for being able to exclusively breastfeed him, and be a full-time student and a full-time RN. I can keep going… He slept through the night really early on, he has the sweetest, most easy-going personality, and he is gorgeous. I know, I know, every mother thinks her baby is the prettiest, but this time, it’s true!!! Aiden even got a job modeling; I am quite excited about it. I have to get his work permit taken care of this week, because he is modeling next Monday. And he is getting paid more than I do, and I have a degree!!!! So that’s my superiority complex, I like to gloat about how fortunate I am, I feel very blessed, even if I just sound like I am bragging. I have a lot to be proud of, Brandon, Aiden and I have done very well for ourselves. We have accomplished a lot. I mean I didn’t choose to have all these good things happen, but we have worked hard to get where we are, and we are in such a good place in life, especially for people as young as we are. I hope Aiden follows in our footsteps.
