Overwhelmed
Hi all, my LO has just turned 6 months and is perfectly healthy and doing really well. I’ve felt pretty good postpartum, until the last week. Is it my hormones and is anybody else just feeling a little bit anxious and overwhelmed all of a sudden? Or am I going completely mad?!

Don’t quote me on this but I believe around 6 months pp you get a drop off of hormones that were keeping you afloat lmao. That’s why most women lose a lot of hair at 6 months. My hair started falling out
My babes are now 13mths but it really hit me at 6m. I think I had been running on fumes up until then and the exhaustion properly hit. That mixed starting weaning I found v hard and piqued my anxiety. Try to take some time to yourself and rest as much as you can. Speak to your HV if you need some support.
Happened to me. I was on a high and loving life until 6 months pp
Feeling alright as of right now. I am in cycle #5 since giving birth. So that’s been fun.

Hi... I think I felt something similar. I've been spending 3-4 hours away from my LO, at the gym, and it has helped me alot. I think we need time to switch off and recharge... you can't pour from an empty cup.
