Baby blues
Hi everyone. I was just wondering if anyone has had the baby blues and found things that helped it. I feel very regretful as a single mother that doesn't have it all together and I feel like my baby doesn't know who his mother is. I just feel like another person to him. I feel very overwhelmed and anxious especially about the future. If anyone has some advice for me it would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

I had baby blues. Felt and still sometimes feel my baby prefers his father over me. You are not alone and there is nothing to be worries or ashamed or anything negative about this. It's pretty normal. This is totally a safe space to talk about these things. 💙💙
When I'm feeling down there are a few things I do now. Sort of check in with myself. I check to see what phase of my period I'm on. I tend to be WAY more emotional before I start my new cycle. After baby now I feel it is worse. Idk. I'm almost 1.5 years in now. I also try to remember the things I've been eating. The more sugar and additives the worse I tend to feel. When I actually start taking care of myself and eating better, balanced and more organic I do tend to start feeling better. Sometimes it takes a talk or hug from my SO.
But basically there is no answer. Do what works for you. Take care of you while you take care of baby. It teaches them habits. My 1 year old even does breath work cause I do now. Lol
