My dd is 7 months old and until recently Ive enjoyed being a mum. The problem is now, even though she is more fun to play with etc I get so bored. I just cant be bothered anymore and feel there is always something better to do. Lately I've been feeling so angry and resenting dh when he goes to work and cant wait til he comes home. She has been a good baby and sleeping thru the night from early on but now all she seems to do is moan. She cries when i dont play with her or when i leave the room, i just cant get anything done. The past few nights she has been up half the night wanting me just to sit and cuddle her to sleep only to wake up 1/2 hr later to do the same again. I cant help myself flying off the handle at both dh and dd and just wanting some peace and quiet. I know i could never hurt her physically but feel so guilty about shouting at her when its not her fault. Today I threw her trousers at her change mat with her lying beside it all in a rage because she wouldnt stop crying, I've never been a violent person before but am really scared of flying into another rage and doing something really bad.
Help! This cant be normal. Do i have PND?
