Struggling

I just feel really emotional and cry over everything. Also my partner keeps snapping at me over stupid things, he gets really grumpy easily and it really upsets me. Is anyone going through something similar?

is it your first baby? when me and my partner had our first born, we clashed all the time, i felt so low in regards to our relationship, he was snappy and grumpy and i can’t say i was much better but we were so exhausted, and everyone i spoke to said it was normal for relationships to hit a bump after a baby. our april 2025 babe is our second and in our relationship we are so much better this time round, as opposed to when we had our first probably because we had been through that bump already, it will get better and easier. also it’s normal to be emotional, hormones are still flying all over the place, give yourself some grace and take each day as it comes. maybe discuss with your partner how he’s making you feel and he may be able to shed some light on how he is feeling too xx

I am 4 weeks postpartum with my 1st baby and it caught me by surprise how emotionally tough the first weeks were - I cried every day and still get emotional very easily. My partner is very understanding, but also sometimes gets uncharacteristically snappy. I think it is because of the changes being more sudden for him and trust it will pass with time. I hope you find a productive way to discuss it with your partner ❤️

I’m struggling too, it’s my first baby. I thought I was doing well, then it just hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve been feeling really alone, emotional and crying a lot lately- you’re not the only one x
