OMG....this is one of the cutest pics of him after I gave him a bath today. The faces he makes are priceless. He has been a really good baby so far and only cries when he needs to eat.

So far so good.....

He is darling, Elaine!
It will get easier - every day it seems to for me. I promise he will start to go longer in between feeds and you will start to get more rest. I never thought it would happen but it is now. And I feel SOOOOO much better this past week than I have since Helayna was born. The tears will become less as well. I used to be able to cry at the drop of a hat and not be able to stop. Now the tears come less frequently - they still come after a stressful or hard day but not constantly like they were before. And I had a lot of nausea at first too. For me it was the exhaustion. I was so tired I felt sick to my stomach. I had to force myself to eat because I knew I would feel better if I did - that was so hard. I wanted to throw up every time I ate. I had to remember to eat more frequently so that I wouldn't get to the point of feeling nauseous. That will go away too, once you start getting more sleep. And believe me, sleep when James sleeps - leave everything else. It is so important.
Hugs to you, Elaine! This is such a hard time. It's okay to cry, to feel frustrated, to get overwhelmed. It's normal. I've been there so many times. But it's true what everyone says. It will get better and easier. Ask people for help if you can - it makes a world of difference!

HI, Elaine! Your son is beautiful and he has so much hair too. Thank you for sharing wonderful pictures so we can watch him grow.

I hope things are going as well as can be expected for you. It sounds like you have wonderful family near by and help is always a welcome thing for new families. I'll be thinking of you as I cuddle Meadow and Helayna this Christmas! Enjoy - and remember to share with us!
