This was where it all started. A recently separated Air Force vet with no family nearby. A traumatic birth, a highly sensitive newborn with colic, reflux, and constipation. Long daycare wait lists with subpar care, a desire to be present for my son, a desire to bring in income for my family and keep working. Don't even get me started on all the postpartum hormones, the 5 weeks unpaid maternity leave, the horrible healthcare providers I dealt with. The list goes endlessly on.
