The most important thing in your life My baby is sick these days. He has flowing nose and a cough. I look at his tiny body and my heart is full of pain because there is no more terrible thing for any mother as her child's illness. There is nothing more important like the health. I know it but forget about it too often. But I have a good teacher now. My baby. When Philipp was only a few days old my head was full of different silly things about my new scars, removing stretch marks, getting fit and etc. I wanted to come back to my before pregnancy life as soon as possible. But the life doted the i for me. I had a mastitis a week after delivering. My baby began to loose his weight, jaundice began. I was scary and I realized finally that I have to change my mind because I have new responsibility and because there is something more important than stretch marks in my life. It enforced me to prioritize the baby's and my health. I forgot about scars and other cosmetic issues. But only a few months later I began going crazy about early childhood education. I mean Glenn Doman's programs, Montessori methods and etc. I began showing flash-cards to my 4 months little one. I spent a lot of time home reading aloud articles, poetry and novels to Philipp instead of walking with him. But the vision test discovered that my son is going to early myopia because of my genes. I have very bad vision, actually I can call myself legally blind. So I came back to the main idea again. There is nothing more important thing in our lives like the health. Nowadays I try to walk with Philipp at least 2-3 hours per day, I want to continue breastfeeding till his 18 months at least, I don't enforce him to read or look at books and I hope he will not have such bad vision as I have. Today my only wish is to raise health man. Other things are not so important anymore for me.

The most important thing in your life

You have written this very well, and your article would certainly strike a chord with any parent. If I may make some small suggestions, I would perhaps reword some if it as follows:

These days, my baby is sick with a running nose and a cough. I look at his tiny body, and my heart aches, because there is nothing more terrible for any mother than her child’s illness.

There is nothing more important than health. I know it, but I forget it too often. But now I have a good teacher to remind me of it: my baby. When Philipp was only a few days old, my head was full of such silly thoughts as my new scars, getting rid of stretch marks, getting fit, and so on. I wanted to get back as soon as possible to my pre-pregnancy life. But life dotted the “i” for me and brought me to realise. A week after delivery, I had a mastitis infection, and my baby began to lose weight and became jaundiced. I was scared, and I realised finally that I had to make a change. This was because I now had a new responsibility, and because there is something more important in my life than stretch marks. I was forced to prioritise the baby’s health and mine.

Please email if you would like me to clarify some of these points.

The Most Important Thing in Your Life

My baby is sick these days. He has a running nose and a cough. I look at his tiny body, and my heart is full of pain, because there is no more terrible thing for any mother than her child's illness.
There is nothing more important than health. I know that, but forget about it too often. But I have a good teacher now. My baby. When Philipp was only a few days old, my head was full of different silly things, like my new scars, getting rid of stretch marks, getting fit, and etc. I wanted to return to my before pregnancy life as soon as possible. But the life dotted the i for me. I contracted mastitis a week after delivering. My baby began to lose weight, and he contracted jaundice began. I was scared, and I realized finally that I had to change my views, because I had a new responsibility, and because there is something more important than stretch marks in my life. It forced me to prioritize the baby's and my health.
I forgot about the scars and other cosmetic issues. But only a few months later, I became completely absorbed by early childhood education. I'm referring to Glenn Doman's programs, Montessori methods, and etc. I began showing flashcards/flash cards to my four-month old little one. I spent a lot of time home reading aloud articles, poetry, and novels aloud to Philipp, instead of walking with him. But a vision test revealed that my son is headed towards early myopia because of my genes. I have very bad vision; actually I can call myself legally blind. So I come back to the main idea: a again. There is nothing more important thing in our lives than our health.
Nowadays, I try to walk with Philipp at least two to three hours a day. I want to continue breastfeeding him until he is 18 months old, at least, I don't force him to read or look at books, and I hope he will not have such bad vision as I have. Today, my only wish is to raise him to be a healthy man. Other things are not so important for me anymore.

 

Best wishes to you and Philipp.

Oh, that is often mistakes of moms I think. The educational things should come alone with the regular needed baby schedule and not instead of it. And try to not overdo things. What ever it is - teaching or walking outside or any other. Everything should be at the right balance. This takes time to learn. Nobody is perfect. You'll be fine. My best wishes to you both! )
