I was worried that this would bring me back too intensely and make me unbearably sad, but instead it reminded me of a few little things I had forgotten about (the hormonal night sweats, my god!), and made me incredibly grateful all over again for the excellent birth care I received. It also made me so, so grateful that I was able to immediately bond with my newborn and that I felt more or less capable of taking care of her, despite plenty of overwhelm.
