postpartum :/

My lil guy will be a month old may 29th ( also on one of my daughters bday.. she'll be 6) it seems time flies so fast. All the pain and sickness from being pregnant was all worth it and times like this I wish I still was. Enjoy it if and while you can :) any other moms with postpartum?

I try puting her higher or lower geting her head right in the middle about the same but I think because my nipples are cracked and sore because after she  manages to get my milk out and keeps eating it doesn't hurt as. Much but the initial latch is the one that hurts the most and when she stops and rest and starts again

@nina159 if it's hurting bad it may be that baby isn't latching on right or you may be developing Mastitis. Should you develop a fever within the next few weeks with major pain in one or both breasts, that's Mastitis. Antibiotics fix that right up in 3-7days.

If you aren't breastfeeding do not stimulate them in anyway and they'll be normal in about a week

Sleep has alot to do with it but that worry you feel doesn't go away. As mother's we're always going to worry about our children no matter how old they get. It does get a bit better as time passes. I'm sure if you call your Dr's office and let them know about your PPD they'll see you sooner

All I do is worry. Its to the point I don't want anyone touching or holding my son, I have depression and anxiety too but I'm waiting to see doc. Maybe its lack of sleep lol

I'm 8 weeks postpartum with some depression/ anxiety but it happens. It's hard being a new mom again especially with a 2yr old and being a full time nurse. All I do is drink a few glasses of wine and I'm all good lol
