    Sami: My 1st full day out of hospital I had to see the GP because I had mastitis and he said I was high risk for PND because I have no support and I should keep an eye on myself because no one else can. At the health centre the nurse asked the questions and I said "yes to all of the above" but she didn't seem bothered by it, so I figured it was up to me to decide if/when I needed some extra help.

    Well husband's back at work so that, of course, means Jude's back to not sleeping all day. Why does he nearly fall asleep when I am trying to settle him and then his eyes shoot wide open and he gets upset? And how many hours a day am I supposed to rock him/ sing lullabies/ stroke his head/ swing him in my arms/ walk around the house?
