User Post: Open Letter to Baby Fever

Michelle, The Fierce Glamour

Dear You,

Over the past month and the past weekend, I've been busy working on baby shower invitations, assembling baby shower favors, look at baby registries (cribbing, decor, etc), looking up appropriate baby gifts, finding baby toys, viewing Facebook friends new baby pictures, discussing baby names with said pregnant friends.

Do you see a trend here?

BABIES!! BABIES!! BABIES!! All this baby talk, all this baby gear, all this baby fascination makes me think about babies a lot. I feel like I get sucked into this baby fever, ok, I do get sucked in! When I realize it, I want to run the other way, screaming at the top of my lungs.


Now before you think, "Why are you so anti-baby?" I'm not anti-baby! I look forward to being a mom, having a child, decorating, dressing, caring, and loving my baby. Its just right now, that's not what I want, it's not what my husband wants. We just got married about 6 months ago. We are loving being us, and figuring out who us is. We don't need a baby to figure out along with that.

Thus, all this baby stuff kinda freaks me out. I get WAY to engrossed in it all. It makes me want to plan my own baby shower, decorate/redo furniture to create kick-ass baby room, dress and plan the wardrobe for the little darling, personalize everything (thus think of baby names)……..and on…..and on….and on. Its a dangerous thought process that just doesn't fit into my life at this point. I'd rather put my thoughts to things a little more appropriate and pressing at the moment.

So this baby epidemic needs to pass or at least calm down, I don't want or need to catch baby fever. Stay the hell away from me. When I'm ready, I'll let you know. Though you can be sure it'll be a while. Feel free to continue to plague others! Don't call me; I'll call you.

Love,

Michelle
