I haven’t weaned my baby from breastfeeding but I did go away for a couple of days, and although I pumped, it wasn’t as much as I should have done and the pump isn’t as good as the baby for extracting milk!
since I have got home, I’ve felt panicked, anxious, feel like I’ve lost that connection with my baby almost entirely, and that I just don’t adore her like I did before I went away.
I had a very nasty mental health plummet when I stopped taking the pill a few years ago, and I was absolutely sure at the time that it was hormone related and now I feel exactly the same (although that time I didn’t have a baby) and now I’m convinced that was it.
has anyone else experienced anything similar and can let me know how long it took for them to level out? I’m breastfeeding again now and hoping it will pass quickly but I’m now absolutely terrified of what will happen when I do wean fully.
