Just reaching out to my other PPD mommas... anyone at this point feel guilty for not being the best you could be early on? Sometimes I feel like I missed out on so much those first few weeks.... but sometimes I feel like there is NO way she will remember me being sad and wishing things were different.
Regardless though, she is VERY much loved now... that's what counts, right?
I still feel guilt to this day. Guilt for not getting help sooner. Guilt for forgetting a lot of his newborn stage. Guilt for dread I felt when I needed tp pick him up from daycare or spend time with him. It can be consuming sometimes.
