Glad things are going well for you with Austin, and I think you are doing really well, it is normal probably to feel the way you feel with anxiety due to your frist pregnancy/baby but you seem to have the right support and we are here too

Wow sounds like you are coping really well; a new born is a scary thing full stop but after all your previous hassles, it really sounds wonderful to hear you being so positive!

Sending you some positive vibes and well done ones for how well you've coped so far.

Thinking of you and your gorgeous family

Been thinking of you!  Well done on the feeding front!

I hope things get easier for you x

I've been away over the past few days too, so missed your BA. Firstly congratulations to you all xx and Im glad that things seem to be going well for you. Its great to hear that you're getting the support you need. Take it easy xxx

Oh SS you are doing so amazingly well. Fingers crossed everything stays positive for you. If I can do anything to help or you just want to 'sound off' please feel free to FB me.

Just another thank you to everyone for your lovely replies.  I do feel incredibly lucky, not only to have a very supportive husband and great support network, but also to have found such a wonderful group of women here who I can refer to, question, and ask for hugs from!

The rest of today has been really good.  A few anxiety attacks, but i've been able to cope with them myself which is great, and gives me so much more confidence that I can beat this!  I've also finally been able to eat a bit more substantially today which is a relief - long may that continue!

Hopefully we'll get another good night tonight (he went 4 hours between feeds overnight last night!).  That will help me feel a bit more human again!

Oooh, and we had him weighed today, he's lost less than 3oz!

Wodger - thank you so much for the offer.  I will most certainly take you up on that if I need to!  Hope that you are doing ok.  I read your birth story on DW the other day and it sounded so fabulous.  Well done you! Have yet to write mine, I got about halfway through and had to stop for a bit (got a bit emotional! lol).
