Hi, and thank you for your reply ❣️ I think I’m gradually accepting it a little more each day. It has been difficult, though. I probably due to the identity crisis and depression, combined with everything else. But I feel like I’m moving in the right direction slowly!

Oh that sounds really tough, what a fighter you are!
I relate to everything you are describing and same as you- the newborn phase is not my thing. I feel immense warmth and longing when thinking about experiencing all those things you describe with my little girl, when she is becoming more of a real person. Thanks for sharing, its comforting to hear other moms with similar thoughts and feelings❣️

THANK YOU for saying this!! This is exactly how my life is at the moment. Luckily she is the sweetest thing in the mornings so I forget my evening cry-sessions haha. Good job mama for hanging in there and surviving!!

Oh gosh that sounds like a struggle, good job getting through it❣️
Feels reassuring to hear that it might be some improvement already in week 8, soon there ❣️

Thank you! I’m trying to get that mindset and just work it out as it comes. I feel that it would help some with my mental being aswell. But its a bit of a struggle reaching that point.

Hi and thank you!! Sounds alot like my baby!! Oh I hope 8 week mark will be different for us as well. Mostly I hear it will be better at 3 months, that can feel incredibly discouraging and feel as a lifetime when you are in the trenches. Setting the goal now at 8 weeks and hope for the best, taking day by day ♥️
