I'm tired to the point of struggling to find the energy to play with my 4 month old son - getting around 7 hours (broken) sleep a night. I'm very run down.
I cry most days, I don't really understand why, except I find my son's cries hard to deal with after a while. I sometimes feel a bit detached but put this down to tiredness.
I feel terribly guilty that I'm not coping better, not being easier to live with for my DH who is so supportive, not doing better for my son.
This sounds weird but my DH keeps saying I should have some time for myself to do something I enjoy... But I struggle to think of anything! I end up just shuffling around the shops. I can't remember what I used to enjoy.
I do however go out most days, meet friends, chat and hang out and I feel fine.
Is this normal mum stuff or not? And how can I stop crying all the bloody time?!
