Struggling with PND does it get easier

[Maybaby31]

I am a new mum to a 5 week old baby girl. I am desperately struggling with everything she has cmpa and reflux/colic and so only grazes on each bottle because she’s too windy to finish them so by the time I’ve spent feeding her, winding her it’s not much time between the next Feed and she doesn’t settle at night at All between so I just absolutely exhausted. I’m just so scared of everything and feel so depressed I keep just thinking of different wYs to hurt myself so I can get away from it all. People tell me it gets easier by 12 weeks or longer (peoples answers vary) but right now I can’t even see me surviving next week let alone till then. I’m just desperate and can’t see a way through. Does it get better

It gets better. First 8 weeks were awful for me, I was in tears 24/7. Now baby is 3 months, he sleeps a bit longer at night at the smiles he gives me make it all worth it.

Speak to your health visitor or dr ASAP. If you're thinking about hurting yourself, you need help right now.

But in my experience, yes it gets so much better and I hope it does for you soon.
