I am no expert but, I feel for you having all of this said to you just 2 weeks after getting home! I think it was several months before our daughters personalities started to reemerge. I think they each had some down time as they were exhausted(they slept A LOT) and grieved all that they had lost--and tried to understand WHAT was going on in their life now--when I try to put myself in their little heads with a three-year old view I am dumfounded and can't even imagine how topsy-turvy and whirling they must feel! how can they sort it all out?

I hope things sort out soon! Just keep loving on that little guy and realize as his mother you things will unfold and you will know your place in his world and his in yours.
