[quote=Anonymous]I'll add something I don't see that anyone else has mentioned - your hormones may still be wacky at 7 weeks. I had great car kids, they could do hours without a peep. I also healed physically after each delivery pretty quickly. And I'm normally a pretty social person who can roll with this. But there is NO WAY I could have handled such a production at 7 weeks postpartum emotionally. Hormones threw me for a loop and I was a basket case. I'd cry at stupid things, feel like a failure if the toast burnt and was fiercely protective of my newborn and associated "territory." Thankfully, DH recognized the crazy for what it was at the time and was super understanding. We stayed home and limited family visits to an hour at a time until the hormones leveled out and I found my bearings. I could not have driven 7 hours and stayed in a busy houseful of people without losing my mind. [/quote]
