Adoptees, did you cry or were you sick often....?

babies are generally crying, sickly, colicky, fussy and generally unhappy. It is just the shock of having to deal with babies. It might be slightly increased by the fact that many people who adopt domestically are getting babies that are sickly because their parents didn't have the resources to get good prenatal care and/or weren't able or willing to care for themselves during gestation, but I think generally there is a lot of shock that comes from getting a newborn because it is a ton of hard work!
