Postpartum? Overthinking? Mild depression?

I’ve been feeling off since I had my baby. The lack of physical support that I receive from my husband breaks my heart. Did I rush into a marriage thinking I was doing the right thing or am I overthinking? I’m burnt out but I try to be the best mom to my baby. I’m the only one who’s working a job that I highly dislike. I’m grateful but it’s breaking me down. I’m tired and half of the time I just want to give up. I feel like a single mom in a relationship with little to no help. I’m not sure how to balance motherhood, work, and myself. I feel like I’m doing everything wrong. #venting

Show your support

Remember that having a baby can exasperate your feelings so keep that in mind! That being said if you need more support at home, just let your husband know that you feel burnt out and that you could use a hand. The right person would fully understand this and be willing to help. Hang in there, it gets better.💙

@Marita how long does it last? My baby is 6 months and I’m trying. I communicate but we’re both young parents but I’ll continue to try. Thank you for your feedback

It's different for everyone. Keep communicating it to him, if you start crying even better then he'll know the severity of it, you got this hang in there
