I'm becoming so depressed. I'm 17 and I just had my baby girl a week ago. I live with my mom and lately at early in the morning (3 or 4 AM) she's been taking the baby for me so I can get some rest before school, which I appreciated until now.... It's 5 AM and I just woke up to give her the baby and I made her a bottle .. She told me to go to sleep I said no I have to make sure to bottle is warm and she started with the "I had 5 kids and none of you died" thing so I started to go, but she took the bottle out before I left and I said what are you doing its still cold? She said no it's not so I tested it on my wrist and if course it was still cold. I said no it needs to warm up more and she started going off about I'm a stupid bitch and I'll never make it anywhere and I'm gonna grow up to work in a liquor store or target and "take my stupid fucking baby and do it myself" ........so I did.
But none of this is helping the fact that I've already been so depressed with other things and with the baby crying every moment of every day no matter how much I feed or change her. I'm dealing with it well but it's just so stressful. I think I have PPD. There's too much going on right now.

@shinystar1, I'm sorry you're dealing with that. My mom says the same exact line of her having 5 kids and none of us died. It's YOUR baby and always do what you feel is right for her. Btw, having a child doesnt make you any less nor stop you from achieving your goals. May take a little longer but im SURE youll be more than a liquor store employee. Also if you feel you have PPD please seek help! There is plenty of resources. Get healthy for you and your baby 💜

I had my first when I was 18 and still lived with my mom. I had PPD and believe me when I say you should see your doctor for it. I didn't at first and it only made things worse. it does get better mama ❤ I moved out of my mom's finished school and am in the process of getting a house. I NEVER thought I'd be able to accomplish anything. everyone made me feel like I would fail and I was stupid because I was young. you can never let them make you feel that way! and hey, I worked at target to put me through school a job is a job. your baby doesn't care where you worked to get the food, they just want to eat!

my parents are very strict too and when I told them I was expecting it was bad. I got very depressed and my anxiety shot.thru the roof. I was in college at the time as I'm 19, but I dropped out (taking classes now that my baby is 3months old) but I know it can.be really hard! and stressful. babies are hard. you can message me anytime you want to vent, complain ask questions, having that person to vent to can be wicked helpful. you don't want bad PPD and end up hating your baby :( he/she needs you.

just keep your head up my mom says that to me but she was a horrible person and she kicked me out a week ago along with my 7 month old baby its tough I know but that baby needs you more now than ever if you feel like that grab a journal or walk away from the crying untill you are calm down enough to find out what she needs.. it work.. it's okay for them to cry and scream a little sometimes they do it for no reason it's good for their vocal cords my daughter does it and she has great vocal skills
