Passage 3

  I used to be a teacher, and when I left work to have Emma I hardly knew my neighbors’ names. Being at home with your first baby is a great shock to the system. For six months all my time was taken up by Emma, but she did cry a lot and by the end of the day I could have screamed myself. There was just no one I could phone to talk it over. My husband was sympathetic but he was at work, and my mother lives miles away.
