I really want to say things, but they're not ready to come out. Having a baby is delightful. She is gorgeous and sweet and she smells so good! It is also the scariest, hardest thing I've ever done, and although you know that's going to be the case long before they're born, it doesn't really sink in until you are sitting there with a blob of tiny humanity in your arms. I am worried about nothing and everything, and though I am incredibly lucky to have been blessed with a good sleeper, I am still worn out exhausted beyond reason. Surgery! Stress! Midnight feedings! Etc. Right now I am having a hard time staying awake and the boy is nagging me to go to bed because I keep falling asleep. At least this way I can say that I posted, though! I will try to get back into the swing of things soon. Until then...happy nappy, I guess. :)

Hopefully you're listening to "the Boy" and getting some shut-eye. I appreciate the update and I'm glad to hear that things are as they should be, you're tired but adore your child.

I can imagine it is incredibly overwhelming while being wonderful. A bizarre mixture. As for the lack of sleep, my god, I almost have a nervous breakdown after three nights of little sleep, I don't know how I'll cope with a baby :)

Rest. It kills us, but we understand. Have an unpublished life for a week or so.

:) it's the horrifying, terrifying, wonderful thrill ride of parenthood :)
