I definitely experienced this also for about 6 weeks. My husband had major surgery 5 days after we were home and for about 2 weeks his prognosis was not good. That coupled with the fact that we were overwhelmed and exhausted led to depression. It really helped me to admit how hard this was and get some respite (from both hubby and daughter). Just half a day here and there made ALL the difference. As adoptive parents we often wait so many years for a child that when the miracle finally happens we feel we don't have the right to whine ans complain like other new moms. Bringing home a child at any age is stressful and exhausting---reach out to others, get the help you need, and this will soon pass.
