@babypeanut.x very normal to feel like this, but don't be afraid to tell your health visitor or gp. The worst thing you can do is bottle things up x

@karla22 I'm worried that they will think I'm not coping with being a mum and I don't want that. I'm coping perfectly fine, my boy is a happy placid little thing I just feel really crappy and down but I don't know why :/ x

Please speak to your health visitor or doctor. They won’t judge you and won’t think your not coping. We can’t help how we feel after birth. Our bodies go through a lot. The sooner you speak to someone the better for you. The health professionals are there for help and support. Xxx

@georgina-ox I was perfectly fine up until past two days or so just broke down had to phone my partner home from work sobbing my heart out and I couldn't tell him why as I don't even know why. @cheryl123 What will they do ? is it just a chat ? I'm really worried about it xx

@babypeanut.x they really wont think that at all. I suffer with mental illness, anxiety, depression, ptsd and it was worse after having my daughter, I wouldn't let her out of my sight. I didn't say anything to anyone apart from my partner because I was worried they would take her off me! Obviously not the case.. they over you help and support etc. If you feel worse please speak to someone xx

@karla22 I've had depression twice before and I suffer from minor anxiety too. My wee guy is always with me I struggle leaving him with his granny for even a couple minutes. That's what I'm worried about! They've told me I'm doing an amazing job and that I'm coping brilliantly so that's what I'm worried will happen if I tell them I've been crying and had a break down yetserday :(
I will xx
