Everyone hates postpartum visits… except me 🤷🏽‍♀️

Everyone says they hate having people over right after having a baby… but honestly? I kinda love it and it helped me with postpartum depression.

I like the company, the help, the snacks people bring, and seeing everyone gush over the baby. It makes those early days feel a little more exciting (and less isolating).

Not all postpartum visits are overwhelming… some are exactly what you need.

Did you like postpartum visits?
