I am the first time mother and my baby is 9 days old. I still feel overtired and guess that have ‘baby blues’ troubles. The delivery was quit easy and I was hoping that post partum period would not be hard for me. I feel a bit disappointed and a bit worthless. Is that normal? I haven’t discus this with anyone.
Well it is normal; some mothers have more aggressive thought in post partum period. ‘Baby blues’ and post partum depression require treatment and should be discussed with health professional. I felt overwhelmed during first 3 weeks after childbirth. Hormonal changes are great in this period and are responsible for emotional instability and moods shifts.
