This! HV make you feel so shit If you don’t give them the answers they want. Due to covid I’ve never seen mine since before she was born and had very little interaction . I still feel like she’s not mine like it hasn’t sunk in yet I’m not sure I’d this is normal (5 months old now) I feel like someone will comeSo sorry you went through that. I think so many mums have post natal depression or low moods that either get missed or don’t get addressed correctly which is awful. I remember giving my HV the answers I knew she wanted to hear rather than how I was really feeling in case anyone thought I was a “bad mum”. There’s so much pressure to be a perfect mum (whatever that is!) and love every minute which is completely unrealistic.
To collect her soon from being looked after by me I’d that makes sense
