edited December 2021 in Introduce Yourself
Don't know where to post this so figured I'd come here and reintroduce myself. I'm Tori, been a while since I've been on here because my life has been hectic, alot has changed. But I'm hoping to start being more active on here.

On the 10th of December my life changed forever, I welcomed my baby boy into the world. It wasn't as planned, I had to have a emergency c-section at 32 weeks 5 days. Baby (Damian) is in NICU but is making amazing progress everyday, and won't be in for much longer all being well.

(moderates, please may I post a pic of my baby, not sure if it breaches rules)

    Welcome back to the community @dancertori it's so lovely to see you <3

    Congratulations on your new baby boy Damian, I'm glad to hear he's doing a little better and making good progress. Do keep us updated with how he's doing and also how you're feeling, we're here anytime you'd like to reach out for some support.

    In terms of sharing a photo of him, we don't allow photos of babies shared publicly on the discussion boards just because it's such a public space and we want to keep everyone safe. If you wanted to send a photo through private message to someone that would be okay to do <3
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤
