Our friend Aromulus had warned me before about looking after between my eldest and newbaby, I thought yeah I'll be fine but I was wrong, I can now see what he meant and it's not easy. I must admit, I'm suffering from depression but I know I can beat this and I'm strong LadyJ and would love to know how are you specially your wife coping with your little one?
, that's the same problem with my little'un, he will not sleep in his cot, soon as we put him in our bed he's fast a sleep, but he takes up half the bed, arms and legs stretched out, if you try to move him, he kicks you , i have to sleep on sofa with dog , or sleep on the edge of the bed, as i cannot fit in his cot, maybe my wife could fit in the cot thou...

oh i'm coping very well , my stepson looks after him while i work, and my wife works, well hes young only 18 , but as kids are off school, hes also looking after his 6 yr old sister , what a guy ...

my wife i think is copying well, no depression, not that i'm aware of, she is tired alot, cooking, working 5 hours a day, revising for her exams and our son wants to be with her all the time, or its the water works

we take turns in wearing him out , he loves the thing you attach to the door frame spends 30min on that, so he can bounce up and down, and also we've got a 9ft trampolene that we put him on, and my 6yr old bounces up and down with him, also bath him at about 8pm and hes out like a light

i'm sure your depression will not last, hope not
