Hi! I’m just making a post to see if the postpartum rage ever goes away. I’m 3 months postpartum and 10x more irritable than I ever was. I’m especially snappy with my partner.
I feel like I’m constantly in a comparison or holding a contest for who does what. Let me preface, my partner is beyond helpful. He knows when I need a break and makes sure to step in the second he gets home and help out however he needs whether it’s feed the baby, make dinner, he’s there. But somehow I still get irritated or still feel like that’s not enough. Idk if it’s being home with the baby all day and working from home while he gets to go to work that feels like a ton but I just feel like a mega bitch all the time & I’m always finding reasons to be upset at him!! I know it affects him even though he says it’s okay & understands when I apologize (which is almost everyday nowadays).
I don’t like who I’m becoming but I also feel like it’s not me & I’m holding out hope that it’s just the hormones. Idk I just wanted a place to put all these emotions & maybe get some advice or hope lol.
Does the rage or irritation ever go away?
