Can it be ppd if you don’t want to harm yourself or the baby but you hate being a mom? I would never do anything to hurt myself or my son but I reeeeeeally miss my old life.

He’s almost 6 weeks and I am miserable. I feel like a bad mom because I don’t get all happy when he snuggles on me because it’s all the damn time. He breastfeeds for an hour every 45 minutes. He can only fall asleep on me. He cries unless I hold him. I just need a break. When my husband holds him he just cries so my husband has very little bond with him. (I imagine it’s hard to bond with a baby that only cries around you.) but bc of that I feel guilty leaving him alone with him so the only time he’s left alone with him is when I shower or poop.

On top of everything, my dog has been extra clingy and I just want everyone to leave me the fuck alone.

I haven’t put on makeup in 6 weeks and don’t wear anything but sweats because I don’t leave the house because I’m paranoid the baby and/or I are going to get sick since the weather is awful.

All I do all day is feed him, change diapers, try to get him to nap, and browse my phone for 14 hours a day because I’m just stuck on the couch all the time.

I just get no joy out of being a mom. When people ask me how parenthood is I can barely muster up a lie. I want to tell all of my friends not to have kids because I literally have no positives to say about it other than I think my kid is cute.
