I have a 4 week old DD. The birth was a nightmare, she's had tongue tie, has reflux and is still struggling with tension from the cord being wrapped around her neck. Oh and she doesn't sleep all day. Like 6-7 hours a day. Just stays awake and screams no matter how much I try and soothe her
The baby blues were savage, I didn't expect the way I felt for the first two weeks
It's got slightly better but I still hate this. I feel such a burden of responsibility and I'm struggling with the loss of my old independent life. I could go out and enjoy the sunshine, I could cook a meal without worrying when she's going to wake up. I could LIVE
please tell me this gets better, because I'm miserable and I just want to put her in nursery and go back to work, as awful as that may sound
