So happy for you all :) She's beautiful! <br /><br />P.S. - I'm in the same boat with you as breastfeeding goes. I wasn't producing enough for her fast enough (she was constantly hungry) and she lost too much weight, so we're doing formula ... which made me feel like such a failure, but at least I know she's getting everything she needs ... even if it's not from my boobs. So I can completely, totally, 200% relate to where you're coming from.<br /><br />ENJOY that beautiful little girl!Mama Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17779916398848046884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593179199694971328.post-57064764467853445312011-01-28T12:02:27.618-08:002011-01-28T12:02:27.618-08:00What a wonderful story.

I can tell how much love you have for your daughter...it's amazing. I'm glad you sought out help for the baby blues. I can imagine how so much changes when a baby comes into your life. It's not easy dealing with being so happy and so inexplicibly sad at the same time. I'm glad you are feeling better. She's beautiful, by the way. It's wonderful that you named her after J's grandmother...very special indeed.TeeJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00893545693449975785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593179199694971328.post-22447803491219269972011-01-28T01:52:57.113-08:002011-01-28T01:52:57.113-08:00Congratulations and welcome earthside little Madel...Congratulations and welcome earthside little Madelyn! <br /><br />I followed you from before you fell pregnant as I too was diagnosed with PCOS but managed to fall pregnant naturally (my own little miracle!). I was so happy for you when your IVF worked and now that Madelyn has arrived! Being a mummy is the bestest job ever! My baby boy is 8 months old, last night at 1:49am I was up nursing him cos he is sick with a cold and I couldn't think of anything else I would want to be doing. I hope that's how you will feel once the baby blues are overwith!<br /><br />Take care and enjoy your babymoon!LapBandGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05615134110520373029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593179199694971328.post-55487833018450671972011-01-27T14:24:22.969-08:002011-01-27T14:24:22.969-08:00Congratulations just does not seem to be enough to...Congratulations just does not seem to be enough to say! As I sit at work crying as I read your post. Thank you for being so honest and candid about your experiences. I am so glad that you are feeling better.

It made me both very excited, and nervous for our impending baby! <br /><br />She is so cute! I like the name Madelyn, and it so nice to have such a loved relative to name a baby after!<br /><br />I have to admit, I was so worried about you the past week when you hadn't posted anything. I probably checked your blog 10 times a day. But, that's just me, I always picture the worst case scenario.<br /><br />I hope you enjoy your time at home with her, and I bet you so look forward to nice weather to take her out for strolls!Melissahttp://www.sweetmelissasweets.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593179199694971328.post-45625597756848992862011-01-27T13:10:20.601-08:002011-01-27T13:10:20.601-08:00She is beautiful!She is beautiful!RELHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11527280213368948100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593179199694971328.post-19402767861970232482011-01-27T12:18:23.370-08:002011-01-27T12:18:23.370-08:00Congrats'!!!,she is beautiful!! take care of y...Congrats'!!!,she is beautiful!! take care of yourself, and enjoy Madelyn.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593179199694971328.post-86888226654948992782011-01-27T12:13:48.664-08:002011-01-27T12:13:48.664-08:00Congrats on your Star!

I think especially after going through infertility treatments, this can be expected. I am sure you will feel better soon. You have a wonderful support system and a BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL! Please continue to reach out to your husband, family, and therapist. I have done ivf 3 times, without success, have changed clinic and am hoping to be in your shoes soon. God bless.

I just want you to know that I went through the SAME EXACT emotions that you are dealing with. It is horrible and no one quite knows just how bad it can be unless you go through it. Hang in there though girl, you have a beautiful little girl and cherish every moment! And always remember it is good to talk about your feelings, I found such healing in that, even when I was sobbing so hard I could barely talk, it just seemed to help to get it out, no matter how many times I said the same things over and over again! <br /><br />You are a great mom already!

You are such a wonderful momma, and you'll figure all this out. <br /><br />I'm sorry to hear about the breastfeeding, I know this must have been disappointing. But formula is just fine, and that little one will grow big and healthy with your love and formula.<br /><br />Please take care of yourself with the depression. I'm glad you're getting antidepressants - perhaps also therapy would help?<br /><br />I'm just thrilled beyond belief to read this post, and know all about your birth.
