Thank you so much for your support. It's so nice that we have people here we can lean on for a few words of encouragement. It all balances out in the end, doesn't it? Anyway, yes, I had PPD with Liam. You might be right about the pill thing ... I'll ask my Doc about that one. The tantrum thing can sometimes take all our energy - but we refuse to give in. We keep thinking that by not letting him get his way that they'll stop. We usually either ignore him or tell him that it will not help him get his way. Unfortunately, he has a bed now and not a crib. He'd just climb out of it. On the flip side, I really think I'm through the worst of it. I don't feel completely h orrible like I did at Christmastime. The meds take a LONG time to really work well. My children are my joy and will ultimately get me through it. Quinlan is so adorable now - she's giggling and really gets into her toys now. Liam bless his heart, is a super kid when he's not throwing tantrums. He's really good 90% of the time. IT's just that the 10% is pretty nasty.
As for you going to 3, I have no doubt in my mind that it's a lot easier than going from 1 to 2. Furthermore, your girls are great and will be a tremendous support for you. Plus, you've been through it twice, and you will not have another wee one to reckon with (which we did the second time). And yes, I really think it's a boy. Don't ask me how - it's just a gut feeling. Wait till you're a bit further along - I started to tell between 8 and 13 weeks - and I was right both times!
