I had thought about creating another tumblr for baby related stuff because I didn’t want to bombard y’all with baby baby baby, but right now this is my life. It’s all-consuming and rich and maddening and 100% powered by biology, which is why parents of infants are so insufferable. We cannot help but be infatuated with our young, lest we eat them or abandon them. I don’t really know how to tune my brain onto another station other than “baby” and right now I don’t need to do anything else. I need to be consumed by this, to experience it in its richness and its misery. I have my whole life to get back to being myself minus this kid, but right now he needs me wholly, and I need to be wholly invested because there’s nothing else that matters more right this second.

The good news is that some day before his first year, you’ll realize that your brain has been capable of thought that is not dominated by BABBY. But I felt like I would never get there.
