Struggling FTM

So sorry your feeling this way I've had a few days feeling down as well just know you are doing amazing just take deep breaths and one day at a time x

I’m 12 days post birth and I can completely relate! I have had days where I feel so incredibly overwhelmed and emotional, so please don’t feel like you’re alone 🤍

Please don't beat yourself up. The fact that you care says a lot. I am feeling the same, completely inadequate. I think I am in the depths of postpartum depression/anxiety and have reached out for help. I can't even figure out how to feed my baby formula so please don't think you are failing. I had a massive meltdown yesterday feeling like the worst mother to my children and that I will ruin my marriage. My husband is currently doing all the night and evening feeds and he's exhausted. We have no money and have builders in our house. Everything feels in chaos and I feel like I have no idea how to be confident

Same here. Unlike most mums, it’s the daytime I dread, as our baby seems to be much more difficult when the sun is up. I’m 5 weeks in and spent the first 3 weeks crying, shaking and calling myself incompetent. My husband may be supportive in many ways, but he’ll NEVER understand like a mum would

You are doing an amazing job - these things happen. The fact that you care says that you are doing an amazing job. I’m a FTM as well, and there are days when I’m freaking out, but then I have to tell myself that I am doing my best, and that is all I can do at the end of the day. My baby is loved, fed and sleeps. You got this mumma ♥️

Struggling as well, its been a rollercoaster! The anxiety about being a good mum and doing the best for our little girl is crippling! Some days i can't stop crying then feel guilty because im not my best for her. I Google everything which I dont think is healthy either
