I disliked putting him in and out of the car because everything ached when I did it. I disliked the everlasting dirty windows and dishes and trying to cook with a big belly and a little boy getting in the way, while also trying to stay awake during the daytime, and trying to fall asleep at night.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>This country was not what I wanted it to be, and this whole mom thing was getting old real fast.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/omily.me\/en\/compassion-bloggers-to-the-land-of-motherhood\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\">This post is part of a series:<\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/omily.me\/en\/compassion-bloggers-to-the-land-of-motherhood\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3018\" src=\"http:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"compassion-bloggers-motherhood\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-144x144.jpg 144w, https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood-900x900.jpg 900w, https:\/\/omily.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/compassion-bloggers-motherhood.jpg 1060w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/omily.me\/en\/compassion-bloggers-to-the-land-of-motherhood\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\">?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n<p> Now that we would have a second baby, I was going to deeper, or different, into this land of motherhood.
