Maternity Leave

 

I haven't been here in a while. However, I have a good excuse: We had a baby; a sweet little boy. And he has made me busier than I have ever been. It's amazing how difficult it is to find the time to do anything that requires two hands (e.g. type). But, I'm back now...

Is having a baby different in England than it is in America? In a word, yes.

The short version:
American: "Would you like an epidural?"
British: "Would you like a paracetamol (Tylenol)?"

Nothing could have fully prepared me for it; it is the most amazing, crazy, beautiful, life-changing thing I have ever experienced. And I'm loving it.
