Please talk to your doctors about how you’re feeling!

Definitely talk to someone but also know that the first couple weeks are so incredibly hard. I cried all the time and was so overwhelmed. I had a c section too and it was a rough recovery for a bit and it just adds one more layer of complexity to everything on your mind. Take breaks when you need it and give yourself lots of cuddle and skin to skin time with your baby to help get all the good chemicals flowing. It really helps even when you're not feeling it yet.

thank you so much 😊a bit of relief im not the only one that’s going through it

Hi I felt this way and had a c section. They took the baby and I didn't see her for almost 2 hours later and I feel that definitely hauled the bonding between us. But I spoke to my OB and she said she can take time for some women.
