The first two or three weeks I brought baby home I had the same problem. It would get late & everyone would go to bed and I would feel so depressed and lonely. I would honestly just start crying. And I knew I would be up alone when baby woke up every hour. I was exhausted and I felt alone. I think it was post delivey emotions, not really depression just adjustment. It went away after a while. What I did was put on a good tv show or channel and let it play as I slept that way I didn't feel completely alone. And then when I woke to take care of baby it was playing. A waste of electricity yes but it helped. And it took my mind off of the stress I felt too.

People keep asking me do I have insomnia & I'm starting to believe that I do. Hopefully I stop feeling like this because I don't want my baby girl coming out sad
