Out there with one baby, your first born, thinking how hard it is? How you literally have NO IDEA what to do? How difficult it is to get out of the house some days?
Yeah, I feel you. I’ve been there. I know how scared you are. How sore you are. How every little thing can seem insurmountable. How exhausted you are.
I feel you, trust me, and I sympathise. I really REALLY do.
But, I have a message for you all (and here’s a bit of tough love for you…sorry).
Suck it up. RIGHT NOW.
Because – one is easy (well, easier). Two or more babies/kids is a logistical nightmare.

Never judge a book by its cover. This author needs to take some of her own advice. Some people experience infertility, recurrent miscarriages and in some cases cannot have another baby due to health complications.
Look, I'm re-reading this and looking at the tone, and your willingness to come across as you do and why.
Now I am wondering if you might want to have a chat with your GP about PND. You sound like it might be worth running through the symptoms you are experiencing.
Or, maybe it is simply about adjusting your expectations vs reality. Is your partner doing his part also?
