i too have been teary a few times. last night we went out to our best friends 30th/house warming and it was a chance for our friends to meet hendrix. Well trying to find something to wear was sooo depressing as although ive lost most of the weight my tummy is still pouchy and my hips are thicker so nothing fit!! Then when i came out of the room feeling yuck and DH said are you ready in a semi annoyed tone and i burst into tears.
Anyway we had a great night and hendrix was just beautfiul smiling at our friends, and having lots of cuddles but i suddenly at 10 i got all overwhelmed and started crying. Thank god we were with our closest friends and my sister and brother were there. We went to the bedroom and i said i just needed to go to sleep, i also worried that we would get home and that hendrix would be really overstimulated and we would have a big awake night. But i calmed down we left and last night hendrix had his longest sleep 5 hours - just when i needed it it. Then he feed, fell straight to sleep and slept another long stretch - so feel a bit silly this morning.
Glad to hear the emotions are flowing for you guys too as i feel a bit more normal. A nurse friend of my mums was over yesterday and said that it shouldnt be called the baby blues as it gave it a really negative vibe, that all the hormones and the end of such a build up over nine months, that what else should we expect.
Anyway feel great now - just wait for the next thing to bother me!!!!
