Hi girls, just thought I would pop in and see how we are all doing.
Christy - how is Jovie? is she on some meds now for reflux? Any sleep improvements
AJP and Kim - I think you are both very brave to seek help for PND - it must be a hard thing to accept let alone talk to someone about. I have suffered with some issues years ago and the hardest part was admitting something was wrong.
Was quite worried about PND before Logan was born as both my mum and sister suffered severely needing hospitalisation
So far so good but this motherhood is defnitely very taxing and by far the hardest thing I have ever done.
My profession pre baby, as a vet, was obviously stressful at times but at least you can come ome from work and have a break. Babies are 24/7 especially when you have one with "high needs"
Speaking of which, I am only able to get on here because Logan has been asleep for 3.5hrs and now 5hrs since last feed. NEVER sleeps this well in the day and I am usually feeding 2-3hrly.
Not sure if just a fluke or something working.
Went to paediatrician yesterday, mostly as a follow up for his hips given he was breech. Had an u/s in the morning and hips all fine but discussed the sleep and unsettled issues with paed whilst there and he thinks sounds very typical of silent reflux.
Started on Zantac and mylanta yesterday. he said we prob wouldn't see improvement for over a week but who knows?
I did also try wrapping again. Had given up because he always fought it and wanted his arms out but ? if this has helped and I should just persist.
Could just be he is exhausted after so little sleep for past 2 weeks and tommorrow will be back to square one!! Oh well, will enjoy it whilst it lasts - have gotten so much house work done, its great!!
