Having two children 3 years apart has been a little hectic for me causing me to have post-partum anxiety. I have been trying to work on it with the help of my medication. Although the medicine helps it caused me to not be able to breastfeed my baby which was something that I wanted to do. I felt it was a bonding experience for mother and baby. I am just trying to ensure the safety of myself and children and not allow my anxiety to take over my life.

I wish there was something I could say to fix what you are going through, but it's not that easy. But what I will say is that it will get better with time! I have been through the same type of situation with my younger two children and to be honest I am still trying to get my feet planted firmly up under me till this day. But the love that my children show me is my strength to persevere. Find all the joy you can in what's going good in your life and not the bad and just focus on that and SMILE! 😀 Brighter days are coming! Be blessed!

I had my children ten years apart. It was like starting over.

I know it’s hard to see the good things but children can provide so much joy. I never breast feed and I’m not sure about the bonding thing. Be with them, love and hug them.

Good luck.
