Not enjoying being a mom

I know the title sounds harsh, but my son is 4 months old and I’m really struggling to enjoy motherhood. It feels like it’s all bad and never any good. I can’t wait to go back to work so I can enjoy being with him more. Is something wrong with me? 😞 I absolutely love my son and would never change anything I’m just finding it really hard to find myself.

The first year is super hard. I felt like this sometimes too. Now my daughter is 22 months and there is so much more fun, and also more breaks. It gets better, just needs some more time!

4 months pp is still very fresh, it’s been 7 for me and I still find it hard to find myself again. It’s a whole new world it’s okay to grieve the one you had prior

I had a REALLY hard time with my first. We didnt really bond until 5/6 monthd old. Why? I couldnt tell you.. but i felt so guilty.

NOTHING wrong with you. Of course you love your baby, and please don't doubt you are doing a wonderful job. It is Haaard to enjoy that first year, so PLEASE don't feel bad/guilty 🙏, but it definitely gets better Mumma!! I honestly know💛
