not sure – perhaps because I have family all over tomo to meet my newborn. She’s two weeks old tomo! I came over extremely anxious and sick tonight so thought share on this website. I’m lucky as my other half is here and taking care of our baby in the evenings so I can sleep but he goes back to America 4th July and I’m scared how il cope alone. M.e/ ptsd / new first time Mum so I hope I can manage ok 🙁

Hi this is very normal the way you are feeling even for someone with PTSD. Remember your breathing that’s the first of your tools you should be using. This will help relax your little girl as well. Find a song you like sing it to your baby over and over. Keep that one in your head and if you start getting anxious sing it. Don’t worry about the future, focus on now and your baby, those days go by so quickly they get lost in the past. You will manage I promise you. Big hugs to you and your little girl. Remember she’s very precious not every woman is blessed with that tiny bundle. 💕😊🌻🐾🐾x
