Anyone else have gone through postpartum depression or even rage? How was your experience during/after and even day to day? What have yall found helpful for yourselves?
I swear this shit is for the birds. Its been tough lately (my baby is turning 2 months on friday), the overwhelming anger i feel when breastfeeding or pumping for no good reason then the guilt that follows. The anger and dissapointment in yourself that you've done everything you can to calm your velcro baby but it isnt working. The late nights up, unable to sleep from the depression. The exhaustion and hormonal shifts.The crying cause my baby is no longer making the same cute sounds or size when she was in the delivery room, to the outfit that fit her 4 days ago now doesnt. The tears and frustration from your boobs hurting by not pumping in time, or even the fact that weight isnt coming off like you thought it should.
Genuinely, its a huge battle we have to face within ourselves, Every Single Day . Then in the surface be there for your baby, help your spouse with daily maintenance and everything else that seems to happen while time is oddly slow, but dramatically fast.
