postpartum depression and anxiety

Tiffanie • Tiffanie

So I was diagnosed with postpartum depression and anxiety today. Been really irritable and feeling kind worthless as a mom especially to my toddler. I just feel like I’m not giving her the time she needs because every time she wants me I’m feeding the baby. I pick fights with my husband over stupid stuff and just feel kind of alone. and I have a lot of irrational fears about the baby (she’s going to get really sick, she’s not safe, etc.) Doc increased my medication and prescribed more adult interaction so hopefully I’ll start to feel better soon.
