Pregnancy & Postpartum Counseling
The tears, worries, & irritation...
A full nights rest, are days of the past. The never ending to-do list keeps you up. You can't remember the last time you've had your hair done. You just wish you could escape.
You're not that excited about being pregnant
You're wondering how this is going to work. Your career is important to you. You hold everything down at home. You've asked for help, but it just gets done best when you do it. By brining in this new life, how will balance be possible? The math isn't mathing.
