How is everyone feeling?

Question

I was super depressed and cried all the time the first week. This week I’m super happy. First week hormones are no joke. 
I have 5 pounds to lose to be back to pre pregnancy weight but my baby looks so lumpy 😂😂😂. Can’t wait to tone and get some muscle back!

Answer

The first two weeks I cried non stop. Three weeks now and finally starting to not feel as depressed. I feel so bad the first two weeks with my baby I was so down and depressed and didn’t enjoy anything. I won’t get that time back with him and I should have tried to make the best out of it.  I’m hoping I don’t go back to that so I can enjoy the rest of my maternity leave.

Answer

I definitely cry a lot, but not out of depression or failing to bond with my son. I look at him and just cry at how perfect he is and how I never want him to hurt or want for anything. It's getting better, but those first few days were definitely a struggle, especially after an unplanned c section. I am a very independent person, so having to rely on others has made me feel very vulnerable and out of control, which is the most frustrating.
