Hi All and congrats to any new babes that i've missed during the Alexander Hiatus.
It's interesting watching transference of graduates across from the Aug thread!
I wanted to just come on here really and say that Alex is wonderful. He's a poor little thing with colic though. It makes a lot of the time we have with him so frustrating as we can't 'enjoy' it as we'd wish.
It makes me coming back to work yesterday after a two week plus gap very very difficult (for the both of us).
I can't bear to be apart from them. I am particularly missing Eeny. I even miss her when i'm at home because we just spend so much time doing Alex stuff!
Eeny has also had the return of migraines-from-hell since he was born and no medication approval to help them go away. So whenever possible I am letting her sleep while I look after Alex. Yet more time apart.
We had been sleeping in separate rooms for a few nights to share him and allow the other some sleep, but I missed her so much I wanted us to all be in the same room last night.
Unfortunately it was a minor disaster as he didn't settle at all really... [not at Alex but at circumstance]
I am so proud of Eeny though - coping with the migraines and the colic along with all the usual premature baby related shenanigans.
I'm really glad that it is a long weekend, and I get paid, and we have a small windfall Saturday, and we're getting our new Mamas & Papas pramette!!!
Blurrghgh - sorry just wanted to vent that lot out!
Will try to stay sane over the coming weeks....
Or fall asleep at my desk, like I nearly did yesterday...
