Hi. Good to see you back. Congrats on your baby girl. Sorry about your dad. I'm just lurking these days. Tummy is mainly under control.

well life is kinda upside down at the moment. im trying to get established as a new mom, trying to make sure my mom is doing ok & working on all the stuff that happens once you lose your spouse. I'm also greiving the loss of my dad & feel like i'll never quite get over it. can't believe i'll never see him again on this earth. I was so looking forward to seeing him be a grandpa to my baby girl. at least he got to meet her & hold her. I'm currently traveling back & forth between my mums, my mother-in-laws & home. Its a wonder my bowels are working at all these days. The night my da went into the ER, I got physically ill just from the stress of seeing him hooked up to all these monitors & machines. I had chills, nasea & couldn't stop going to the bathrooom all night. Glad he is at rest now.
motherhood is going ok i guess. I love her so much. lots to adjust to.
I'm tired & going to lie down now, been up since 4:30....

Good luck, Kiwii. Sleep as much as you can, and pile heaps of love on your beautiful baby. Being stuck as a caregiver between generations saps the strength. You have a baby that needs you and everyone understands that your kid is your 1st priority at this moment.
I think it's so important your dad got to meet your baby before he passed on. I know he feels that way too.
Good luck, my condolences, and big congratulations!

She is beautiful!! Congrats!!! And at the same time, I'm so sorry to hear about your father. Thank goodness he got to meet your little girl.
New babies are exhausting, so take care of her and YOU before everyone else!!! They will understand. And I swear, breastfeeding is a cure for IBS, so if that's the route you've decided to go, I hope it works for you! It's really tough in the beginning, but it's so worth it when she can look up at you and smile during feedings. Email me anytime if you need to vent about it, or need advice or whatever!!! Good luck to you!
