Looking back at the old pictures is making me very emotional. My baby is has grown up so fast. I wish I can hold on to the new born phase. We went through lots of ups and downs. Had difficulty latching. Won’t take the bottle in the early days. What helped the most was staying consistent with him. No matter what I made sure I was available. That’s all mattered. ![IMG-20240912-WA0014](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/momcozy/original/2X/7/769ec8ae5169c483b6d28e7418e86ecef63476e6.jpeg) ---

What a cutie pie, I always said how wild it is how fast they grow when there in the tummy and I couldn’t even imagine how fast they grow on the outside! well low and behold my oldest will be 13 in October and this being my last pregnancy I’ll be having babies any day now! It’s bittersweet! Gone by so fast makes me cry ---

I too get so emotional because it truly goes by so fast!! Consistency is the key to everything in life. And whether we’re ready or not, our babies will continue to grow. 😭 The beautiful part is that every stage they outgrow is replaced with a new one to fall in love with. That’s the bittersweet gift of parenthood. 🤎 ---

Very high chances that I’m not going to have any more babies, so it’s very hard. I am trying to soak up as much as I can. ---
