I’m in control of my life-I always have been……. The baby’s crying again just when I thought I had an hour to myself, I’m hungry, I’m tired of changing diapers, I haven’t talked to my friends in days, I collapse in an unmade bed at the end of the day…did I even say goodnight to my husband? Will I ever be able to gain control again?

There’s nothing more beautiful than a sleeping baby. Let’s face it-there are no hard-fast rules about new born babies and sleeping. Are there? I don’t want to ask my mother. I want to hear it from parents going through it right now.

The buzz about post- partum depression. Happy-sad, sometime hopeless. I always thought of having a baby as the happiest time of my life..that’s what my mom says. The baby blues are not a big deal about half the women get baby blues. It is about the hormones raging and this all peaks around the 4th day after birth all around the time the milk comes in. Everything should change for the better in two weeks…if not tell somebody.
