Emma, it's a good idea to talk to the mw, I'm sure it will make you feel better. But it doesn't sound like PND to me. You are enjoying motherhood and seem to be coping very well. It is easy to have "moments". At Gaby's age you are still dealing with hormones that haven't completely left your body yet as well as lack of sleep so it's natural that emotions are exaggerated. I think we have all at some point got to the stage where we've done something we can't believe we've done. I'm sure you'd never hurt Gaby and in a few weeks your emotions should have settled down.
Belinda, I really hope you are feeling better soon. I think you are doing an amazing job coping with 3 boys - I'm finding 2 a real handful!
Kate, how awful for you and Rylee. How unlucky can you be with her having colic and reflux. Did Kelsey have the colic too? Tom has had some colic but it has settled heaps now and I think most kids grow out of it by about 3 months, so hopefully that pain will be gone soon. I've tried a few different lots of colic drops for Tom and the one I think has worked best for him is the Marina formula. But I think that different bubs respond to different ones so Rylee might be totally different. Anyway, I really hope it gets better for you soon. How are you managing with so much stress and so little sleep? Hugs to you too!
Kathryn, sounds like the concert went well. Good on Kameron. I'm sure your speech went very well, we are our own harshest critics! How do manage to fit in being Council President and have 3 boys??
Marion, I hope Kirsten's skins problems aren't too bad. At least over there they won't be worsened by heat LOL! They can grow out of it so she mightn't have it for much longer fingers crossed.
Ally, glad the cream has helped. What a great sleeper she is! Lucky you!!
Kirsty, hugs to you too! Lots of hugs today LOL! I hope Jas was fine after the big poo. Got to love those big poos! Jack has only ever had 3 poos that leaked out of nappies but Tom has done more than I can count already and he's only 10 weeks old LOL!!
We had a great day yesterday. Tom was so good. Last night I went to our local ABA Xmas dinner. Only 10 people came but it was good to catch up with them. It was a late night as the power went out just after we got there and we couldn't order for an hour. I took Tom and DH stayed home with Jack. Tom woke up while we were there but he didn't cry, he was so good. When we got home he slept for 3 hours and then woke every 2 hours - ouch! That's what I get for disrupting his routine!!
This morning is Jack's Xmas party at day care. He will see Santa for the third time. He already loves getting presents! LOL!
