Is this PPD or am I just a bad mom ?

Question

These past two days I just been feeling like I don’t want to be around my baby . I feel like I just want to get away from him and I don’t know why . I feel like I e failed as a mom already . I hate myself for feeling like this . He’s so cute and innocent and I feel like I’m not being there for him like I should be. Me and my bf keep arguing and I feel so angry about everything and I feel so exhausted and tired . My bf had him all day today because I just felt like I couldn’t be around him and sometimes when I look at him I cry . Sometimes I feel like maybe I’m just not meant to be a mom . I wanted him so bad . At first I really felt like my purpose in life was to be a mother. Now I feel like maybe I got myself into something I wasn’t meant for

Answer

Def sounds like ppd. It’s hormones and something that many moms go through. Speak with you doctor and know YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE! You are the best mom for your little one that there is ❤️

Answer

It sounds like PPD. I felt the exact same way when I had my daughter. I think a big part is I was just super overwhelmed and it's a huge change in life. I always wanted to be a mom and once I became one I felt like I couldn't do it. It was too much for me. 
I talked to my doctor and was put on medication. And after a few months was able to be taken off.
Having a baby is a lot of hard work, make sure you reach out to your doctor, ask family for help, and just be vocal about how you're feeling. 
You got this momma!!! Just don't try to force yourself to be this picture perfect mom. We all have struggles when it comes to having a new baby. No momma is perfect. At the end of the day just relax and set up small goals for yourself. Put some music on and dance with your baby, do small things to start to feel a deeper connection. To be honest it took me months to get a bond with my daughter, not because I didn't want one, but because I struggled so bad. So I just did little things like read to her, sang to her, danced with her, talk to her about my day. Little things that we still do now four years later.
If you ever need someone to reach out too I'm always here. ❤️
Everyday is a new day, and everyday it'll start getting a little bit better. ❤️❤️
Remember you got this, and you are not a bad mom!!!

Answer

This is ppd. Plz consult a doctor as soon as possible and believe me as you start overcoming it, you’ll start enjoying your baby and the time you spend with him. The same happened to me too and i was crying all the time and angry and exhausted and i thought to myself that becoming a mother was the biggest mistake of my life. Then i consulted a doc, took some medication and two months later i now can’t spend a few hours without my son. I love it now. You’ll too! ♥️

Are there other female members in your family you can ask for advice or to come be with you? I know personally if I didn’t have my mother and sister my boyfriend would not have made me feel better or confident.
