Mom guilt and anxiety

Ranay

I’m a FTM. My mother in law came over today and while she was here she asked if she could keep my son tonight so she could spend more time with him since she’s only been able to see him twice and so I could rest. I have a very good relationship with her and fully trust her so I agreed, but now I’m having a mental breakdown because I miss him and I feel so guilty for not being with him. I’ve only been getting 3 hours of sleep a night so I know I need the rest but I now realize that would rather go without sleep than be away from him. I feel like an awful mom especially because I’m his comfort. I hate letting other people help (even his dad) because I feel like as his mom I should be able to do everything on my own, I just have so much anxiety when he’s not with me. Can anyone relate? does this ever go away?😅😭
