Postpartum dread

Hi, can’t believe I’m posting this. I had my second baby a week ago by emergency c section and after being in the hospital for a week I was discharged today. When I got home I just felt so much dread. I love my first baby and ofc I also love my second baby too but I just feel so much dread of what’s coming. My second is a Velcro baby already, she wants to be held 24/7 and by me only. I’m so exhausted 😭😭😭

@Jasmine I just can’t deal with the pain and how sleep deprived I am. With my first I could just nap whenever and stuff but this time around I need to make sure they’re both okay. My husband helps a lot but they’re both super clingy to me so it just makes it so hard for me 😭😭

Go easy on yourself youve just had major surgery ! I also found a hot watr bottle helped my tummy pain just not right on the scar area can your partner take them both a walk while you nap ? Or even take one and try nap when baby does i know it rough but you will get there

@Lisa he does take the baby when I nap but atm my toddler has been even more clingier and she does not even want him to look at her so it’s just hard

Its a big change for them too i feel so tired aswell i have an almost4 year old whos so on the go but possible adhd and autism
