Afterbirth
Gone in the blink of
a baby blue eye
that initial fear
filled micro moment
of awkwardness
new motherhood
invariably brings ..
Okay, so tears dried,
sighs sighed, milks
flowing and guess
what, babies cry ..
Isn’t that the way,
the text books say
it should, always be ..
Well listen folks
and hard, between
the sleep deprived
hallucinations
and let’s not forget
the mood swings ..
Someone really needs
to say it, like it, really is ..

KP's mood swings are unbearable. She's only in a mood when she can't afford more botox. lol.
Here's a poem by her: 'Me, me, me, me,......'
what do they call a pair of narcissists & a guineapig ..
What empathy you behold truly, being a new mum is the most crazy experience a women can ever have, I've done it so I can safely say this, emotions and hormones. I know she is your beloved daughter but you got inside her mind and a few million other women too. You always amaze me But this is out of extraordinary dear Nev. Kudos on so many levels. Sending big hugs and loads of love to you all from Italy 💖
I am well n truly honoured but don't deserve the pedestal I am occasionally placed upon .. just dont stop believing ❤️

I have absolutely no idea why any woman would volunteer to do this.....
me neither, but I hear she may yet consider another .. cheers Dave
Once asked a woman I was close to what birthing was like (what a thought - since it was postcoital) She replied it was like shitting a watermelon... an image I've never quite been able to forget.
Words flow while you seem all focused on your daughter with empathy all the way-no way to know exactly how she’ll feel from each moment of this miraculous challenge, but it seems like you are mastering the art of fatherhood…
I got the hang of fatherhood a long time ago .. its this grandfatherhood that is so new to me 🙂
The best way you are connecting with your grandchild is how you gave to their mother-best of all well wishes for you and your family, be sure to share your gift of poetry
