Anyone else in their first week+ postpartum? My sweet boy is 5 days today and I was totally unprepared for the hormones. They hit me like 5 tons of bricks last night and I’ve been working through them today. Crying every time I hug or snuggle my hubby, or every time I see him with the baby brings me to tears. Could hardly sleep last night. I don’t think I was worried about baby more like over whelmed by how much baby needs me. Trying to breast feed and have done successfully until this afternoon. But I pumped to give later. I was able to take a breath letting daddy feed him while I pumped. I was so anxious thinking baby would wake up soon and need me to feed him.

Thank you everyone for all the responses. It has been such an encouragement to hear from other moms that it’s normal and that it will end soon. It took me a few days but i am doing so much better. And now I know if it does happen to hit me again I’ll be ok.
