Parenting after a Loss
Rough weekend:(
I'm totally exhausted and overwhelmed. Cora was so fussy all weekend, crying most of the time and fighting sleep and me holding her was the only thing that would soothe her. It's created alot of stress for DH and I because we get mad at each other as we try and figure out how to help C. Then DH realizes that his wedding ring is lost. Lovely. I go back to work a week from today and I'm a mess thinking about how much I will miss Cora and miss out on. My hormones are all over the place.This is my first month of taking the mini-pill and I hate the way it makes me feel. Yasmin was the only pill I was able to take and not feel like a crazy woman. I think I've just got alot going on right now but part of me wonders if this is a touch of the Baby Blues too. Thanks for listening ladies, I just really feel like crap and need to vent!

Re: Rough weekend:(
(((big hugs))) we've had one of those weekends, too.
for me going back to work wasn't as bad as i expected. with ds i had all summer with him and he was 4 months old when i went back to work. i was ready for a break by then, but with dd i had to go back when she was 6 weeks old. i dreaded it but it turned out being really good for both kids and myself. having a regular routine really helped her sleep and eat better and me getting out of the house and using my brain for something other than mom stuff was good for my sanity.
it's rough getting started but it could be really good for the both of you.
i'm sorry
big hugs!
i definitely felt super overwhelmed about going back to work. DS did great. me - not so much
hang in there!

For me the anticipation of going back to work was worse than actually doing it. The first few days were tough-I remember coming home to find out that DS had taken a long nap in his swing and I was so upset b/c as far as I knew he hated his swing. I felt like I was already missing things b/c his likes and dislikes had changed in the 9 hrs I was gone! But it got better, we both got into a routine and he's happy as can be at his daycare and gives me big smiles both when I drop him off and when I pick him up
For now, try not to think about next week. Just enjoy this week and hopefully Cora will be a happier baby for you today!!
Boo, I'm sorry. Sounds rough, I hope this week is better.
My hormones were all out of whack when I took estra-step, it sucked. I eventually switched over to the nuvaring which I liked. I tried to use it while bf, but it lowered my supply so I went off it.
I hope you can get in a good nap today!
Ugh! Avery had a bad day/night on Friday. NOTHING was making her happy all she did was scream. I think she napped twice for a total of an hour. Luckily she was a completely different baby the next day. I hope Cora snaps out of it and you can get some rest!
I'm also on the mini pill and I'm unsure about it as well! I think it may just take some time to adjust.
