PPD

Idk I don’t agree that this is PPD just based on what you wrote. I think you’d need to speak with your Dr regardless though. I feel this way and I’m not depressed. Being a new mom is lonely and I feel alone way more than I did during pregnancy. You are your baby’s world and as much as their dad is involved it’s never as much as you are. Friends don’t get it if they’re not in the same place and your parents focus on baby (out of love). It’s normal to look in the mirror and not really recognize yourself. You went through a huge change and you’re adjusting. You’re doing really well.
I feel the same, I used to be so insecure before I was pregnant and when I look back at pictures of myself I feel silly. I just feel so gross and ugly now
How old is LO? Not fair to judge your own body until it's healed and separated from the baby (i.e. not responding hormonally to cries and coos/no longer breastfeeding) Until that separation happens you guys are still one, and there's no way you can feel the same as you did before
@Cece thank you this made me cry it’s just so hard right now I was just living free and now I’m just constantly being attached to and struggling to even make myself happy
