Post partum blues ?

Im only 6 days post csect delivery but i already feel all kinds of emotion. Im not sure if this called post partum blues or im just adapting to new environment and everything. Everyday i would cry or feel like crying, sometimes for no valid reason. I just feel like crying. And when my newborn cry, i would feel like crying too. At the same time, nothing prepared me of how much i will miss being with my husband, just the two of us, doing whatever we want, watching netflix together, cuddling together, etc but now everything is all about baby. I miss being me. I miss being by myself and do whatever i want. I feel bad for saying this but sometimes i just wished i would’ve waited a little longer to conceive after marriage. Now there’s no turning back and just have to slowly adapt to new everything. Is it normal to cry everyday post delivery, esp for first time mum.

Hello Mummy, I think the arrival of your baby make you feel very overwhelmed. Maybe because u didn't expect you will need to give up your me time and bonding time with husband. Sometimes I do cry as I feel too much to handle and need to vent out. I think u need to talk to love ones to help you abit. Maybe get them to help u with few session feeding and get some rest so that u will not feel so overwhelmed. If u really cannot take it,u can continue to ask or talk on this platform... Sending some love to you. Everything will get better :)
