I don't even know where to post this, so apologies if its in the wrong place.
But I'm sitting here in a right state just thinking about going out. I'm literally terrified. I had my daughter nearly 6 weeks ago via emcs so haven't really been able to go out. But I have my 6 week check tomorrow and I'm scared because a) l have to go to my doctors surgery and b) the doctor will say I can drive again and then I'll have no excuse.
I've been for walks around my village, but other than that I haven't left my house. My family live an hours drive away and work so I don't get to see them much, so I'm feeling very isolated right now.
I'm breastfeeding and it was a big struggle to begin with, I'm still having some trouble on one side so I'm scared of her needing feeding if I go out. I can only feed her in a particular chair in my house. I need to get used to feeding in different places but I'm worried I won't be able to and that'll make me give up bf.
This is turning into a bloody long post, but I feel so stupid feeling like this. My mum asked when I was going to take DD up to see her and I burst into tears.
I don't know what to do :(
