A/N: This will be pretty short, I have limited time and just wanted to get an update in! Oh yea, Scottish Lass, Sara is 21! Only own Sara, but y'all know that! Enjoy and review!
Adjusting:
Sara's POV, 3 weeks after Brianna was born:
I'm going to flat out admit this, being a mom is not a walk in the park. I don't think that I've gotten more than 5 hours of sleep in the past 3 days. Well, it was probably longer than that, but it sure feels like I'm running on 5 hours of sleep. I'm starting to feel like I wasn't cut out to be a mom. I think that Brianna hates me! John is the only one who can get her to quiet down, she just cries harder when I hold her and try to calm her down. Oh man, I suck as a mother!
John and I have been running back and forth to the doctor's, since Brianna has to get constant check ups. She got her shots yesterday, boy was that an experience. My eardrums are still ringing, as are John's!
I've been working out like crazy, trying to get my body back to normal. I never really gained that much weight, only about 18 pounds, but I've still got some flab on my stomach. You can almost tell that I used to have a 4-pack now, which I'm guessing is a good thing. I only got one somewhat noticeable stretch mark, on my side. It'll fade as soon as I start tanning again.
John and his brothers got Brianna's room all finished up, it's totally adorable. It's purple, with moons and stars everywhere! That little girl sure is spoiled!
Our house was completely packed, because both John's and my mom are still here, Jenna is now a part-time occupant, and 2 out of 4 of John's brothers are still staying here.
John and his brother's, Matt and Sean, decided to go out today and took Brianna with them. I'm pretty sure that they're out shopping for more baby stuff. That's practically all John does now, shop and fuss over Brianna. Gosh, am I jealous of my own daughter? Since the boys are out, and the mom's are busy organizing the house, Jenna and I decided to lay out by the pool in our backyard.
"So, you getting better at the mom thing?" Jenna asked me.
"No, you hear Bri when I hold her, she hates me." I confessed.
"I highly doubt that chica. She's just a daddy's girl right now. It'll fade, I think."
"Thanks. Yea, she definitely loves John. He's awesome with her." I replied.
"What's wrong? You're so mopey lately!" Jenna asked, flipping over.
"I don't know, I feel left out of everything." I answered, staring out at the Gulf Coast.
"You are not left out, it's just your depression talking. Get over it!" Jenna replied matter-of-factly.
"You are a BIG help Jenna. Whatever, maybe I'm just sex deprived!" I exclaimed.
"That could be. When's the last time John popped ya good?" Jenna asked, cracking up.
"Haha, well… we haven't had sex since I was 6 months pregnant. Doctor said it would have to wait until after she was born. You know, cause of my almost miscarriage. Since John got shot, we've got to hold off even longer, not that I want him to see me this flabby." I replied.
"Sounds to me like you found your problem. You want more TLC from Mr. John!" Jenna said, putting on some more tanning lotion.
"Not just TLC, I want plain ole attention!" I answered.
"So tell him!"
"I can't go up to him and say, 'John, I'm jealous of how much time you spend with our daughter. Oh, by the way, I'm also a sex-starved maniac!' that would go over great Jenna." I sarcastically remarked.
"Ya never know!" Jenna answered.
We both sat there talking about other things, while in the back of my head I thought about our Honeymoon in Vegas. Oh man, when did I become such a horn dog?
A/N: Yea, its short and it sucked! I just thought I'd give you a lil taste of what Sara is feeling like after Brianna was born. Next chappy will be 10 times better! Peace out homies!
