Hey, how are you feeling now? You’re not a bad mother you’re just overwhelmed and under-supported!!! It is hard work and you’re only human. Is there anyone who can give you any physical support in the next few days? Long term support plan?
Lots of people have been through what you have but they won’t admit it xx
hey thanks for the comment partner came home and helped me with baby and validated my feeling I feel much better and baby has stopped crying. I think baby is theething so will see how tomorrow goes if still bad partner will stay home with baby next day because I need a break I'm touched out from breastfeeding, sleep deprived and that doesnt help

Girl I feel you wholeheartedly, the sleep deprivation was an absolutely killer for me as well - also breastfeeding so im with you in solidarity and in rage!!! I always apologise to my baby girl when I rage, and try to introspectively figure what was the cause/trigger. Sometimes it really is just as simple as “I’ve had enough, doing everything by myself and it’s really bloody hard” 😵💫😵💫 hope tomorrow is better for you xx
thanks for your comment really appreciated it in those hard time
