I hated the newborn stage. Hated it.
I felt I was lulled into a false sense of security cos all I’d ever seen was Facebook posts and social media posts saying how amazing it was.
I used to cry in bed because I was so overwhelmed.
Our baby was a result of £30,000 and years of Ivf and I felt guilty I wasn’t enjoying it.
Then it turns out none of my friends liked it either but they never shared it cos they didn’t want people to think bad of them.
So when another friend of mine in October also hated it and was crying every day I told her it was ok to not like it.
My baby was born end of May 2020. I had no support from midwives or health visitors or anything so I dont think that helped me.
We have 2 more embryos but I hated the newborn stage that much I think I am one and done
