Feeling like he'll have a better life with someone else

[Arghlife]

I'm failing. I'm failing him. I'm failing at basic things for him. I've got so much support and I'm still failing him. I thought I could do it but I clearly can't.

It’s so hard in those early weeks. I often had these thoughts, I felt I was failing him and he deserved a better mum. He had colic too and all the crying made me feel like I was failing even more and as though he didn’t even like me.

He’s 4 months now and such a joy - please hang in there it gets better. When they start interacting it’s amazing and a million miles away from the newborn stage xx
