Postpartum anxiety

Does anyone else feel like they are worrying about every little thing? I feel like I stress over everything. I’m 9 days postpartum and it feels like the things to think about and worry about are never ending. It doesn’t help being seriously sleep deprived either. I was on anxiety medication pre pregnancy but stopped while pregnant, gonna speak to the GP about it this week but just wondering if anyone else feels like this?

Yeah it's crazy with the hormones right now. I think it took a couple of months with my first for it to calm down to be honest

I’m 3 weeks PP. I went to the GP last week for this and they started me on some low dose anxiety meds. I felt better after visiting and spoke with my health visitor who was able to refer me to perinatal mental health team. I felt really lonely feeling like this but it was reassuring to know others were also in my shoes 🩵 you are doing a fantastic job as little ones mumma! xxx

I totally get how you feel. I’m 14 days PP and I get anxiety even leaving my LO with her dad just to have a shower. The hormones are awful! You got this though 🥰 every day is a step towards feeling better

Tbh yes I have it to I’m Constantly scared of anyone watching my baby I feel like she has to be with me all the time I’m scared for her to be in her own bed.
