Congratulations!!Hello all
Gave birth to my first baby last Thursday
He is absolutely perfect but I am struggling mentally, I don't know if its baby blues or my general anxiety
I feel like I'm constantly staring at my baby worrying something will happen
I am constantly checking the breathing monitor we have for him. I'm googling things constantly. I cried today because my partner thought our baby had a problem breathing- he just slightly choked on his saliva - but now I'm shaking and back to just googling things and staring at him
I'm so frightened of finally being happy in life and finally having mt perfect baby that somethings going to take it away
I think it's normal to feel some level of anxiety after having a baby, baby blues are horrific too. Definitely keep your eye on your mood and speak with your health visitor about how you're feeling if you feel it's not getting better/getting worse xx
