feeling very blue and feel somewhat in a dark hole. just had a baby 11weeks and people aay things will get better but i dont see the light at the end of the tunnel. lack the sleep. am either pumping or craddling the baby. havent left the house in days. even if i do plan to step out something stops me to. am emotional.. tired and feels as tho i dont have family to help or support me. i cant seem to lose the pregnancy weight and just feel utterly urgh and lonely. any advise would help

hey mummy!!! me too!!! i didnot go out except for visit to clinic/pd. and i was in a terrible shape. i did not wanna see guests yet confinement period is like keep entertaining guest. my relationship also was quite straining with my mum and husband. to be frank, the whole situation actually push me and my mum apart. which is quite sad. but i cannot stand to give in on my views and we ended up w lots of quarrels. but this is my baby and i do feel more empowered when i decide on things myself rather than following like a blind mouse. i was also angry abt many things and even my husband. sometimes even with baby. everything also fed up. going out cannot find clothes to wear also angry. in short i was soooo unhappy and finding fault w all things. then i start to focus on bb and the little things abt bb that is adorable and slowly less focus on things that made me fed up. at one time i even tell my hubby to leave me alone as facing him made me angry. in short i jus wanted to feel happy again and trying to find happy things to be around. something to be sure, it also helps to be around other mummies who has no qualms to hearing you rant it out. sometimes i hear other ppl rant their problems then count my blessing actually my situation not that bad. btw you can find facebook groups for support. but i also must warn that it's luck too to find a group that serves as support and not poison. so, mummy, you are NOT alone. things may look very negative now but mummy you will get stronger!!!
