I have a 15 week old son, after a horrendous pregnancy traumatic birth and now chronic colic that seems to have gone on since day one.
My hv 'diagnosed' me with pnd and suggested I make an appointment to see the doctor I have my appointment this afternoon. I don't know how this happened to me.
Sometimes when he cries (which he does alot) I break down and just want to scream I really struggle to cope.
I break down every time I realise I go back to work in 8 weeks and I would have spent all maternity leave trying unsuccessfully to stop my baby from crying.
Sometimes I think that he will ne better with another mummy who would make him happy (something I'm failing to do)
I'm so scared that if I tell anyone I can't cope they will take him from me. I'm so scared of losing him I worry over every bump and scratch and I can't sleep at night unless I can hear him breathing in the basket next to me.
How did this happen to me??? I'm terrified of my appointment I'm case they take him away or I end up being medicated.
