I met Amy through the same Faith & Mamas instachat that I met my co-host for the month, Kaitlyn. Amy inspires me with her Faith in God and perseverance in the face of tribulation. She is sharing her experience today over at her blog: www.thepragmaticpeach.com. Please read her story and know that you are not alone and together we are changing the face of postpartum because we are Motherhood and we have many faces.
