Postpartum

I didn’t have a 3rd degree tear but I can definitely relate to the anxiety and little one only wants to be held. She crys when I put her down. I love her so much but momma is pretty sleep deprived and barely functional at this point!

@Ashley I've been struggling... felt like just completely screaming at the top of my lungs buy didn't wanna scare the neighbors.

I had a level 2 year and it was itchy for a while. I was recommended to take sitz baths. I’m still doing it. I fill the tub up enough to cover this and I add epsom salts and soak for 10-20 mins. I wonder if this could help you? As for postpartum depression, I had a friend recommend lemon balm to me. I take it as a liquid, but you can get it as a tea. Really has helped me.

Thank-you 💜 I'm gonna try both. 💕
