I totally had PPD with BOTH kids, lucky me. Hate it. Makes me want to punch Tom Cruise in the kisser for telling me to take vitamins to make it go away.

Those difficult babies are, well, difficult. Can't wait to read the rest of it.

I had PPD after my son, now I'm pregnant with #2 and scared to pieces.
Thanks for posting you story :0)

I can't wait to read more. I can't tell you how defeated I felt after the birth of the triplets. I know you would expect that but still, I felt like I was failing.

A cliffhanger??? No! The impatient person in me needs Part 2 NOW!

I am assuming from the title of this post that you ended up with PPD with #3? I wanted to thank you for sharing your story. I went through a mild case of PPD with my daughter, which led me, in part, to start my blog as an outlet for all the thoughts in my head. I think more women need to share their stories to disspell

Stopping by from SITS.

Your story has me intrigued.

My first was also a perfect baby. PERFECT. I didn't even want a second for a long time because I knew the second couldn't be so perfect. I was right. Second came along and rocked my world. He wouldn't sleep without being held. Sometimes it would take up to SIX HOURS to get him to bed at night, and the

I have always said I was glad that I got my colicky boy as the firstborn. He only slept from 12 midnight to 2:00 a.m. Then he nursed and cried till 8:00 a.m. I was a zombie for 12 weeks. Then when I went back to work he was sweet and smiley.......
Twenty months later I had boy #2. he was like your fist one. I had no complaints nursing him every three hours and then going back to work

That's how I was, almost exactly! After having Colin I was perfectly happy. But after Cameron, it was a little different story. He was overwhelming and not a good nurser, either, and to give myself some relief I switched him to the bottle after about a month. With my youngest, Coby, it's been good so far - he's nursing like a champ and a reeeeeally mellow and good-tempered baby. Thank

My sympathies. My oldest didn't have colic but we didn't adapt to breastfeeding right away and she cried a lot. I thought she hated me and I would walk around the block, alone, crying.
We soon learned what we were doing and things were much better... why don't babies come with a manual.

My daughter has reflux. It is a nightmare - it still can be a nightmare. Those early weeks, when she was an infant, were some of the darkest most trying days of motherhood. There is no words to describe what it is like to not be able to take the pain away for your new born child and make them comfortable enough to eat, to sleep and just be a baby.
