    Ditto PPs.

    Take care of yourself and don't be afraid to ask for (read: demand) help. It doesn't help baby if you are neglecting yourself.

    I feel that if a mom says they are calm 24/7 they are lying :) 

    On the gas - try to watch baby massage videos on You Tube. That's the only thing that got the gas out of DS.  We started it right from the beginning with DD and have no is

    My DD was very calm, and almost never cried. I still cried because I was tired and because of hormones. 

    Your hormones are out of whack, you are hungry, tired, and your baby is crying. Sounds like a recipe for an upset momma if you ask me. <

    I bought nature's sunshine catnip and fennel for those gassy moments on recommendation from a friend. I have passed it onto another friend and it has worked wonders for all of us. It's basically better than gripe water. Works faster and you use way less o
