Baby Blues

I left the hospital yesterday, with my c section its been hard for me to get around. I have been taking care of my newborn alone. Her dad basically abandon us. I feel so hurt because I thought he would come around but he hasnt and wont.

Ive been trying to stay strong for so long but this is so hurtful, idk if its my emotions or just baby blues. I havent slept much and would love to get some sleep :-/

I really wish I could of just had a normal family.

Yea men are stupid how do you walk away from the
Mother of your child it doesnt make sense to me. But things are going to be fine just be happy you have a strong n healthy baby n focus on her for now she needs you more than anything right now:-) n don't be concerned with half these people lying like their relationship is so perfect you b surprised the hell they are going through to make things look good from the outside. You just stay focus on you n that baby.

It's the baby blues. I know it hurts that he's a jerk, but you made it this far without him. Maybe once you heal a girls night out will help. These men now of days are completely selfish. That's alright you seem like a great mother your daughter will be fine! For now try to heal. I know with my daughter I slept when she slept. It's alot of work, but time flys your little one will start to sleep more often good luck!

Yes so true,  but it does get harder when your a single parent.  Everytime I was in a relationship I thought that if I ever get pregnant that the guy would stick around but he never does so I'm stuck with it doing it on my own.  This is my forth child but my third one that I'll be taking care of without the father being involved. My family is there for support but it's still hard at times.  Keep your head up,  what may seem impossible to do right now,  you will have the strength when the time comes. And you will be amazed what you can do for your little one because of the love that you have for it.  :-)

Sorry to hear you are having a hard time! I hope you know your baby is the reward for all the hard work. Sounds like you are a great mom being able to take care of your girl after a c-section! Hormonal changes post delivery are fierce and can make you emotional without extra stress. Its OK to feel whatever you feel, but don't dwell on it remind yourself you have done an amazing thing and are strong! If you get really down, call your Dr. Chances are, he/she can recommend a support group with other moms so you can talk and get out of the house once you feel able to. Being a mom is the hardest thing we will ever do so it sounds like you are pretty amazing already!!
