Is it just me?

As a first time mom my anxiety has gone through the roof, i always have the fear of something happening to my child. It’s driving me insane!! Is this PPD?

Yea darling, ppd can come in all shapes and sizes. Some people get intrusive thoughts or some people have general anxiety, i struggled with adapting to my new life and supporting a baby, my boyfriend and myself all at once. I was very fortune to have a lovely mother and sister inlaws to help me because i don't talk to my side of the family. I love walking so that helped me alot, when i felt overwhelmed or was getting stressed i would get in my car with my baby and dogs and walk for an hour. Find what works for you darling x

Might not be PPD but sounds like PPA - much less diagnosed but sounds similar. You should talk to your GP they may be able to help, Alternatively you could find a therapist that specializes in it and see if they can help you identify the root of the cause!

@India thank you so much🤍
