“Baby blues” doesn’t even begin to explain your experience.

Maybe you are surprised at how sad you are in this time of life that is supposed to be so happy. How can anyone be happy when doing every baby care task takes so much time and effort. Where is the time for me? I don’t even know who I am anymore.

Or maybe instead of the blues it is anxiety about every little thing or disturbing thoughts of something bad happening to the baby. Worries that make it hard to sleep at night because you are busy googling questions. Images that make your stomach drop every time they pop into your head. Anxiety persistent enough that it makes you wonder if this is normal. Maybe I’ll just look it up…

You are looking for reassurance that this isn’t “just the way things are” now that you are a parent. That there is something that you can do about this sadness or worry so you can finally enjoy being a parent.
