Did anyone else find their second baby a lot harder than their first? I know no 2 babies are the same but I have quite a small gap (13 months) between mine and I just assumed I’d be right back into the swing of it 😂 but I’m not and I’m really struggling. He’s 7 weeks now I’m worried I might have a bit of PND as I don’t feel I’ve bonded properly yet. I love him to bits but just feel I look after him because I have to. He’s always been a hungry baby and I feel like I’m just constantly feeding him all day. He won’t be put down and when I do put him down he screams until he’s up again. And even then he’s still crying. I can’t do anything with my other child and it makes me feel guilty and miss our time together just being the 2 of us. I feel terrible because I think of all these women who are desperate for a baby and here I am not enjoying mine.
My dad passed away when my son was 3 weeks old so i don’t know if it’s because I’m grieving or depressed or both. I very nearly told my health visitor this week but couldn’t find the words and instead told her that I’m fine when I know not.x
