Could this be post natal depression? I hate saying this, I really really do but it's how I feel.…

Please message me hun xxx

my dear you are not been negative. you are honest enough to share your feelings and that's awesome. Make a appointment with your gp. my best friend had the same issue with her baby. she's much better now

I think it's probably just hormones and baby blues. if you've had a good social life etc before baby then it's a huge adjustment and (not being patronising at all but it will sound that way) you're still quite young so it's a lot of responsibility to take on. all I can say is..speak to your health visitor or gp if you want. the might be able to hep. if jayce is crying and won't settle. put him in the pram and walk.the fresh air and motion will calm him down and really help your mood too. look at your children's centre. they have classes on all the time. and often have groups for younger mums so you can meet people who know how you feel. 😘😘😘

also. have you had your iron levels checked ?xx

@tuftyturtle, thank you so much! And nope, not recently xx

speak to you're go. you could have low iron levels. iron supplements would really boost your energy and mood xx

I was gonna say that too @tuftyturtle sometimes the only way I can settle my youngest is to stick her in her pram after a bottle and bum change and walk her round for abit. works 90 percent of the time. really really hope your OK @beccastirlingx

I feel so upset for you reading this I'm sorry you feel this way, if you have a family nurse talk to her about it! or even your gp. also I agree about the iron thing, I know when I have run out of iron I feel exhausted and just generally cannot be bothered with anything, it effects my mood and everything so it may be that! I hope you feel better soon but definitely talk to someone about how you're feeling hun xx

@emmaclark, I'm going to have to! It's just a fear of being told "your not coping" and social workers and stuff. I do everything I can for my little boy and I can cope, just finding it a little tough at the minute because my support system is my mum and when she's working, which is almost ever day from 5am-10pm, I'm all alone and feel so isolated! Xx

they won't call social services because of baby blues. honestly. they want to help you not hurt you more. get your iron levels checked. your body doesn't naturally produce iron you only get it from what you eat so if you're not eating much combined with pregnancy and blood loss in labour your levels could well be low.

speak to what we professionals you feel comfortable speaking with and try to get out for a walk once a day. just the fresh air will clear your head and lift your spirits and the walk will calm bubba down too x

@tuftyturtle, thank you so much. My iron levels where really low after birth because of blood loss and they where low my whole pregnancy. I have iron tablets there but couldn't bear taking them because I was popping pain killers most of the time but I think I'll start them x
