Overtired..
I’m so irritated lately. I’m 6 weeks pp, first time mom, and I don’t know what to think about it either. My husband is so great to me, he does 80% of the night feedings and let’s me sleep in if I need it, but it never seems like I get enough sleep, and I’m so irritated and I can cry at the drop of the pen. When I finally get over being irritated the smallest thing pisses me off all over again. Sometimes the irritation gets in the way of me giving the best care to my baby, the other night he was crying because he was hungry and my husband was warming up some breast milk and i felt so frustrated because I couldn’t console him, and even breastfeeding didn’t help, and me getting frustrated made me feel like the worst mom and that it’s preventing baby and i from bonding.
I don’t know why, but I feel ashamed to bring this up to my doctor so that’s why I’m posting here, and I don’t really know the reasoning for doing it. I guess just to see if anyone else has felt the same? My husband keeps asking if we should talk to someone and i think I’m just overTired. I just feel lost and I’m so annoyed with myself.
