I am writing on here because I feel like I have no one to talk to at all. I feel like I am the worst mother ever & everything I do is wrong. My head makes mountains out of mole hills and I am so scared I’m going to lose my baby. I feel like the life I’m loving is far to good to be true and everything good I get in life I end up losing I am so scared something is going to happen to my DD and that everything I do is wrong. I am constantly overanalysing every single thing that I do. She is 2 months old and the most perfect thing I have ever set eyes on and just want to protect her, love her and give her the best life possible. But can’t help but feel she deserves someone much better than me. I hate feeling like this, I can’t talk to my gp as I know she will tell my HV and I hate my HV as she is so bloody rude, nosey and also judgemental. OH thinks I’m being stupid.

So sorry you feel this way! And please remember you are not alone.

Are you feeling any better ?
Have you tried relaxation techniques, yoga, white noise machine or CBT therapy?

It sounds like your suffering from anxiety and your OH doesn't understand.

Please contact your GP , it's the best option. There's also the Samaritans who will speak to you about anything.

Do you have any family member or close friends you can confide in?

I hope your feeling better

Sorry I know this post was a little while ago now but I recently had a baby and feel exactly the same, I overanalyse everything and am just terrified something will happen. I know I just need some perspective on things as it’s probably all hormone related but it’s an awful way to feel!

How are you doing now? Did you manage to talk to someone about it?
