Hi ladies. I’m a FTM and SAHM of my 9 month old baby girl. I’ve had PPA since she was born and haven’t really dealt with it (or known how to). I just kept thinking “this will pass, this will get easier with time.” And that was the case with some things, but for others it hasn’t been.

My biggest issue is that I can’t leave her. I don’t feel comfortable leaving her with anyone (except maybe my husband). Before, it was only interfering with us having some alone time/date nights. But now, we’re discussing having another baby (not sure when yet) and it scares me to my core. Simply for the fact that I would have to leave my baby girl with someone else while we were in the hospital delivering. I was hoping that after she’s weaned (we’ve been EBF) that it will be easier, but I don’t know anymore.

What do I do? How do I get past this? And does anyone else have these same fears? I’m hoping I’m not as alone and crazy as I feel.
