Hello there! Sophie is 13 weeks old tomorrow. I do wish I would have blogged before now, but I always feel that way when I drop out. I’m still here and I check in on everyone’s blog, but I’m unable to write. I definitely had postpartum depression. I probably still have it. The baby is doing fantastic. Though I haven’t taken great care of myself the last three months, she is healthy and happy.
We ordered this “jumperoo” because she is constantly wanting to rock and roll. She would love it if I carried her all over the place and danced for her 18 hours a day. I’m too old for that, unfortunately. She’s still a bit too small for this thing and was more interested in flirting with her dad while he took pictures of her. They are so in love with each other!

What a cutie! I’m sure daddy was flirting right back…
I hope the depression is getting better. I didn’t have any right after the birth of my kids, but after weaning my last I had a massive case. I’m assuming it was all those hormones going back to “normal”.
Hang in there! Blog Land is here for you.

Hi Dani! Breastfeeding was so difficult emotionally for me. I’m so sensitive that I felt the hormones immediately race through my body every time I nursed. I felt numb and petrified during that time. I’m still trying to talk myself into relactating. Every time I pump and start the process, the hormones race and I am crippled with overwhelming feelings of fear and depression. But then a couple of days pass and I tell myself I can handle it and once again try again.
