Please help me - PND and anxiety - coping with 6 week old

[Gina1981]

Why are the mornings always the hardest?? I wake with anxiety really early and I'm a wreck! Also suffering with getting to sleep and wake frequently!

I'm bf DD and have another 2DC and I can barely look after myself let alone them! DH is doin his best but has to work long hours so am left to it all!

My 6 week old DD is very demanding and am exhausted and to be honest can't be bothered to do anything any more!

Please help me as I feel like curling in a ball and wishing I wasn't here!

I had reservations about taking them too, but they are really good. I hope your little one gets into a better routine which is a bit less exhausting for you so that you can sort or organise things around feeding, you might start to feel like you are in some form of control. x

how have things been ladies....?

I have been doing really well, thank you for asking. How are you doing?

That's great Ellen :)
Are things moving along with your housing situation ?
I'm ok thanks... Have had a few bad days/nights which have been hard but today has been a good day :)

I spoke to my housing aid worker monday and she is putting in my submission the end of this week when our time limit expires, i have a supporting letter froma friend of the family and spoke to my old and new health visitors, who phoned me back today to say they have liased and are both going to write letters, but my new one needs to wait for my file, but has requested it urgently. So it seems on the up. If not they are going to try and pressue the council into helping with rent in advance and deposit. Really happy atm, but never know, it could still go pear shaped so not counting on it yet.

Sorry to hear you have had a few bad days, but glad today has been better for you, hopefully it will only get better from now on!

Hi ladies how are you all? Well I've had an eventful week!! Was told that DD was Tongue tied! Have had it corrected but feeding hasn't improved yet! So annoyed that it took 9 weeks and going private for someone to notice it!! I'm just exhausted from all of this!

Glad to hear you guys are doing well, I'm ok mentally I suppose but finding it really hard to do anything else!!

Poor little thing, at least they have found it now and hopefully will be able to sort it out quickly. Sorry to hear you are struggling to breast feeding still.

It must be very hard for you and i hope you manage to start feeding better soon.
