I’ll never forget the day (about five years and five months ago) when I was headed out to the driveway to enjoy an unseasonably warm day with my firstborn and some sidewalk chalk. Then his little brother, about a six weeks old at the time, started squawking and I was obliged to sit down and and resume milk wagon status while daddy went out to partake of the sidewalk chalk in my stead. My husband stepped back in the house momentarily and witnessed major crocodile tears rolling down my cheeks. “Oh babe, what’s wrong?” he asked. To which I whine/replied “I WANTED TO DO SIDEWALK CHALK.”

I feel you, hon. It will get better.

I understand the crying…did a lot of that when my second was born. Hang in there…the first few months are always the hardest. It does get better and easier! Your boys are incredible and beautiful!!

Yeah, sounds like hormones. But, keep crying it out. It’s not a bad thing. You need the release. It’s stressful being pregnant and then having a new baby in your life, all the responsibility — CRY IT OUT. It’s good for you.

Sammy J…you’re a wonderful mom! As you said..it’s only been FOUR days…take it easy…you will be back to “normal” in no time. If you have to cry, cry. Cry to me if you have to…even at 2am (heck, I’m awake anyway).

Be strong…it WILL pass and just think of your sweet men (and one sour one HEHE) that make up your family. You’re one lucky chick and I love you with alllll my heart!

I’m just a call away…remember that.

i know all about the crying. when my second son was born, my first was only 13 months old. it was hard not to give him the attention he was used to. and the whole thing was overwhelming. i was like “shit, i’ve got two kids to take care of!”, and “man, look at my two beautiful boys…how did i deserve to be so lucky?”.

it’s a lot to absorb, especially at the same time as settling in (if you ever do!) to newborn mode, getting the breastfeeding going, lack of sleep, etc.

hang in there! and congrats again!

Oh, I remember the tears, I cried because no one came to see me, just the babies! New and old boys, but not me *pout*.

It gets better and before you know it you will wonder why you thought it was hard. Rest and kiss both those beautiful boys and know that you did great! Again congratulations and I love the name.
