Oh Fee - don't worry I burst into tears at least once a day - when we first got home from the hospital it was more than once a day - I have a bad case of the baby blues - I can't find a happy place and it's so silly because this should be one of the happiest times of my life (apparently..!!!) but all I can think about is doom and gloom - as soon as the sun goes down I get so depressed because I know the tough times are about to start
I am finding it difficult to see Charlie as anything but a job at the moment and that makes me feel really really guilty - I can't wait until he gets a little older and isn's so fragile. He is very unsettled after feeds too - I am trying to switch from feeding him lying down (due to stitches) to feeding him whilst sitting up and he's not coping too well - he gulps and gurgles and then gets heaps of wind that takes ages to come up, if at all. He'll fall asleep and then half an hour later he'll be crying and either wanting more to drink or needing to be burped again - so so confusing!
I guess what I am trying to do is take it a day at a time, it's all I can do, and I have to realise it's not going to be like this forever - we're just getting used to each other.
Cheer up if you can, or watch some old episodes of Will & Grace to take your mind of it! Gilmore Girls is on Arena at 5am - I watch that to distract me from being tired - it frustrates the hell out of me and I love taking the **** out of it!
Bubs - good for you with the exercise take it easy though - I have been quite lucky - I've lost over 10 kilos already - am way thinner than I was before I got pregnant - who hoo!!!
Welcome Becca - this is a fantastic group - absolute sanity savers!
