What's It Like To Be A New Mom?

Many new moms find the transition to motherhood quite overwhelming.

Having a baby is fantastic! A miracle, maybe a deep wish coming true.

But not being able to sleep, having breasts that hurt, having no time for yourself and so on can be very hard.

For some women, being a mom is plain great, for many others it is - hmm - a little of both. And for those suffering from postnatal depression, it can be a nightmare. What's it like for you? Vote in this Baby Poll!
