hi ladies,
so exactly a week ago I had a c section and got to meet me and my fiances beautiful bundle of joy. We both spent the first 5 days in the hospital because our little girl was sick. Now we're home. Since we've been home I can't sleep in the bed with my fiance because our little girl will wake up daddy and he has to work to pay bills so I sleep in the extra room. But bottom line is,.. when I just think about not being able to sleep with my man I just break down and cry. I dont really know how normal this is..advice?

Thanks... I just get so emotional. I wouldn't chsnge a thing and I know she won't be this little forever im just not used to spending SO much time apart from my man. He works 4am-7pm and hes so tired he just wants sleep when he is home. I'll just have to be patient I guess and pray for the best

it may sound crappy but the way i saw it (i wasnt working after baby and my husband was) is he helped make that baby too! so if he woke up from the baby crying than so be it. Its not like i EVER expected him to get up or i didnt get up RIGHT AWAY because it was only fair for me to get up right away and every time. Talk to him and explain how you feel and see if it TRULY bothers him to be woke up for a brief moment.
not sure if you listen to country or not but there is a great song by darius rucker called it wont be like this for long you should google it (it will help you feel better about your very situation)
wish you the best of luck

Probably just baby blues a nurse told me usually when you have pod you have thoughts of harming your baby/ yourself so I think what your experiencing is completely normal you still have a lot of hormones raging through your body it will get better ! But if it gets any worse I would talk to your doctor
