How're you all

How are you all and your babies.

My baby is great, but I am unexpectly feedling quite down.  No particular reason, maybe overwork (am very overloaded and not getting done all I should at work and that which is going on is not going smoothly) or not enough sleep.  Hope I can feel better in a few days...  Just heard that a company I have worked with for many years has gone bankrupt.  That's a shock to me too.  IF it can happen to them, it can happen to me..... My company has just been awarded a big new project. This is the make or break for us.  I am so scared of 'break'.  Hopefully this fear will be the impetus needed to ensure it is "Make" Instead.

Last night baby was crying and crying.  Heart wrenching wailing sobs with tears running down her face.  Couldn't find anything wrong and couldn't do anything that consoled her.  She absolutely refuses my breast when she's like this. It makes me feel like such a useless mum when she's like this.

I am also jealous of my live-in-nanny.  My nanny is great and a Godsend, but she spends much more time with my child than I do or can (if I don't work my family has no income at all)..... but to see her playing with and interacting with my baby is breaking my heart just a little......

Things are great here. Yesterday was my first day back at work and it was hard. I cried when I left Sarah....it broke my heart to leave her..especially when she was in such a good moood yesterday. I only called home twice to ask hubby how she was doing. He said she slept all day..waking up to only eat and ounce or two..I think she was feeling low since she had her shots the day prior.
I came home to a sleeping baby in her swing...and said "mommys going to go change and will be right back to get you" well, she must have heard me because I could hear her making noises and waking up from the laundry room. I came back up and she was peering out of one eye at me. I said "hey peanut" and she had an instant smile across her face. She was so happy to see me which made it so much better! Shes such a good little girl. She slept from 10 til 4 was up til 515 this morning from 4...and I put her back down and she was still sleeping when I left at 7 for work.....another day with daddy...i am envious of his time with her while I work.  (he works sat sun mon, so he has her tues-fri) and I only have her sat and sun!
Other than that....everything is great. She is 2 months tomorrow, already weighing 11 pounds, 11 ounces and is now 22.5 inches long. Shes got the cutest little pudgy belly and chunker thighs~!
