you are never ready for it.. but you adapt..

same goes for baby 2, 3, and 4.. heck number 4 threw me for 6.. but life is getting back to normal now.

As for screaming babies in shopping centres.. yeh you get stares and sometimes even comments.. don't get flustered just relax and do what ou would normally do if bub had a cry.

The more flustered or upset you get the more they will

yes your relationship changes but it is up to the BOTH of you to make it a positive change.. sure my Dh and I can get snappy at each other when we are tired and baby is crying and won't settle but then we realize it is no ones fault and get on with it..

biggest advice.. just relax go with the flow and always take a few moments to smile and remind yourself that tings WILL get better...

Look forward to seeing your birth announcement
