You are used to being confident, energetic, sure of yourself.
Since being a parent, you find yourself feeling sluggish, tired all of the time and not enjoying your baby, partner or life.
You find yourself thinking about what you could be doing if you didn't have a baby, or wishing you could just sleep all day and not talk to anyone. You get annoyed or angry at the slightest things and you don't feel connected to your partner or baby.
You are not alone!

These feelings are really common, but that does not mean you have to continue to live like this.

We all know that expecting a baby and having a baby can be an incredibly beautiful time. We also know it can be an incredibly full of changes that you were not expecting. Filled with uncertainty, sadness and irritability.
