I need help....
FTM and this shit is hard. My baby is 7 days old today and I can’t take it. I look at him and I love him more than I can explain but I’m tired and my breasts hurt like hell. One nipple has scabbed over and bleeds when I try to feed him, the other just hurts. I keep having shortness of breath and palpitations...it feels like I’m about to have a panic attack.
My husband has been as helpful as he can but with me recovering from a csection I’m limited on what I’m able to do for myself or our child. I guess I’m just hormonal but I cry at the drop of a hat, I feel like I’m failing as a wife and a mother right now because I can’t do what needs to be done and I hate to ask him to do any more than he already is doing. I know he’s tired too and it may be in my head but today he just sounds so sarcastic and even said to me as I was frustrated trying to feed our son that I need to drop the attitude.
I’m not trying to have an attitude. I’m tired, hurting and just need some help. Is this normal??? I feel crazy as hell
