Hi Guys!

Aghh what a shocker if a few days I've had! Sam has been waking every 1 1/2 - 3 hours over night the last few days..he just wants to eat.
He has also been really fussy at the breast...he wont feed when I am sitting up or when there is any noise or people in the room.The only time I can get him to eat is lying down in bed alone.He used to be such a good feeder so I don't understand it, and I don't know what to do.I can't just stay in the bed all day! Has anyone ever had anything like that happen?It has only been the past few days.
On top of that I really wasn't feeling the best yesterday,just really down.It seems that every time I take a few steps forward a few days later I take step back.I guess I can't expect it to get better right away.I'm just over it though..I want to feel myself again.
On the plus side I am feeling OK today, I had my hair done this morning and I have beautiful baby boy! I guess i have to think to myself that if I take 2 steps forward and only 1 step back then I am still getting better.

Mel - ear infections in both ears! how horrible! I'm lucky in that respect because Sam hasn't been sick at all.I'm always worried though...how do you tell?

Hayley/Reenie - I went to new mothers group for the first time last week.Only problem was that they were all so much older than me(not that that would bother me on its own). I found the whole thing very competitive,what pram the all had,schools they were thinking of sending the babies to...that sort of thing.When they asked me what school I thought I would send Sam to I just said " I haven't even thought of that, I don't even know if we will be living in the area by the time he starts school" They looked at me really funny then!!Gosh he is only 3 months old!!So Reenie - I totally agree with your experience of mothers group!Glad to hear that you overcame PND,It's good to hear that kind of thing,gives me hope.

Luey - 31st too!! Sam was born at 1:25pm so they are 15 minutes apart!!Thanks for your positive Comments.

I also just wanted to say thank you to you guys for making me feel so welcome here.i can already tell that I am going to make some great friends on BB.
