Hi this is my first post and I'm hoping to get some help full advice!
I have a 15 week of daughter and have so far been coping OK (apart from those first few weeks that everyone goes through hell!) But for the past week or so I have been feeling really fed up and down and don't seem to have any motivation. All I ever seem to do is get up feed then take the dog and buggy out for a walk then that's it for the day I just seem to potter about the house doing chores in between feeds and sit thinking about how much I miss my job (I worked with horses so being inside all day is driving me mad!) I love my daughter dearly and wouldnt change her for the world, so feeling fed up makes me feel guilty like I am resenting her (which I don't by the way) and makes me feel like a ba mummy. She's a good baby and generally sleeps through 12hours at night so she isn't causing me any stress, I just feel really fed up about being stuck in all day. I was wondering if other mums feel this way and what sort of things they do with there baby to get out and make themselves feel better???
Please don't be mean, in no way am I saying I wish I hadn't had my daughter I just need advice on ways to help me adapt to my lifestyle change?!
