Whenmy second babywas just shy of three weeks old, my in-laws flew across the country to meet her.

My body reminded me the break was over, and I needed to return to my daughter.

I wonder if Hailey was up all night nursing a screaming baby.

Maybe the baby wont take a bottle, or wont take her breast.

Also, maybe Im projecting.

Maybe, as some Deuxmoi readers suggest, she is just letting nannies raise him.

Her body might also remind her when her time away from him is up, just like mine did.

But heres the thing: Im actually a really good mom.
