10 years ago....

I am not sure why I keep thinking about it. Maybe it's the presence of numerous coworkers meandering around the office in various stages of pregnancy, or the "Welcome So-and-so's Baby!!" emails that I keep receiving from our executive assistant. Perhaps it's the sentence in a magazine article about the benefits of exercise during pregnancy that totally rubbed me the wrong way. It could be the sinking feeling I got when I saw a picture of a gorgeous new mother in the obituary pages a couple of weeks ago. Or maybe it's because almost exactly a decade ago, I could literally feel my brain rotting from the inside as I lived with postpartum depression and OCD after the birth of my first child. Should I really be blogging about this? People are probably going to judge me, but hey, whatever. If I can help another mom who is going through it, then I guess I should say something. Right?
