Yes I will be talking to my doctor but just wanna see if anyone else has felt this way..
My son is 6 weeks and I'm starting to become unhappy. I'm not living with his father right now.. But we are thinking on getting a place together soon. I feel like a bad mom. I don't know why but I do. I'm with him 24/7 so it's not like I'm leaving him all the time. I cry for no reason and I sometimes even wish I wasn't a mom.. WHY DO I FEEL LIKE THIS?! He will have his times when he just screams for no reason and I just wanna jump out a window when he doesn't stop. I love him so much and have never and will never hurt him. But what if there's a day when I do? That scares the hell out of me. Has anyone ever been on any meds and it's helped ? Hate feeling this way. 😭😭😭😢
I was like that the first 3 months, but i got professional help and my husband help too even family jumped in to watch my daughter and get myself pampered once a month or even a small dinner with hubby helped alot. I hope this feeling your going through goes away soon cause i know how it feels. Best luck girl 😘
@babes101116, that's what I thought :(@raehow I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow. Scares me :( @p0790 I'll do that. We need time with just us for a couple hours
Give it sometime, it could just be the baby blues, try to get someone that u really trust to watch ur baby for a couple hours when u feel like u just can't do it anymore, it'll give u time to cool off, it's total normal, also try to find activities for u and the baby to do it'll help u to strengthen your bond with the baby and get u more used to him
I completely understand! I would have fits of rage and I had absolutely no control over it. I was sacred I'd hurt my son and that's when they say you should really consider medicine.
@raehow, my doctor asked me if I wanted to be put on something when he was first born and I said no... But now I'm thinking about it. I just don't want something to happen even though I could NEVER do that. And yes. My boyfriend and I really need a get a way. I just feel bad..
@fabulousmommieof2, it's horrible. I'm crying right now and don't know why 😢😢
I was like that too. It was really bad! I'm on meds now and they're helping a lot but if you're breastfeeding some meds won't be safe for baby.
Talk to people and as hard as it is take time for yourself to get away from baby for a little while. My free time is a shower and that little thing helps so much! I hope it gets better for you :/ I know it sucks
PPD sucks. I remember wanting to kill myself when I went through it the first time and I would just sit on the couch holding my daughter bawling and fighting to not give in to the urge. My mom wouldn't let me be put on antidepressants (I was still a minor when I had my first child) and it took her weeks to finally realize how bad it was getting. Get help of some kind, whether it's a support system from friends and family or medication or counseling. Try and get "me time" away from baby but also get out and go to a park or something with your baby. Take walks with him. Any type of exercise will release endorphins which will help offset some of the depression.
