Happy Baby - Crazy Mommy!

This makes me happy! How 'bout you? :)

happybaby

My postpartum depression has kicked in! Just this past week or so. Please pray for me.
  • It is hard to be agitated and irritable when you have 4 kids.
  • It is hard to cry at the drop of a hat (or a cup of water, or a loud toy, or some food on the carpet, you get my point).
  • It is hard not to be able to sleep when you know you will need the sleep the next day.
  • It is hard when my memory goes out the window about something important that my husband shared with me when I then want to argue with him that he did not tell me and I am crying saying I wish he would have warned me first.
  • It is hard feeling like I don't do anything right and I am a no good mommy!
  • It is hard to feel withdrawn from the outside world when you are actually there!
  • It is hard not to enjoy what I know I would usually enjoy!
  • It is hard that all I want to do is sleep when all I have to do doesn't get done, then I cry about it not getting done!
  • It is hard to not be able to handle the cry of my own baby!!!
Please pray for me.
All things are possible with God.
He will never give us something we cannot handle.
Though my weakness He is strong.
He will never leave me, nor forsake me.
With Him nothing is impossible!

Praying for you mama! That is an adorable baby you have there. Congrats! I love you. God loves you. E-mail me (darryen8808@yahoo.com) if you ever want to chat or if you have yahoo messenger look up darryen8808. I just got through my PPD a couple months ago and I know how important having a friend to bounce emotions off of is.

Hi my friend,

Just want to let you know you are very loved and I will keep you in prayer. Just know, you are not alone. Thousands of women are going through this very thing right now, it is very common. I totally can relate and don't have any babies. Just know He loves you right now and is carrying you through this time. And most of all,try to remember your feelings are not real.

Much love,
Nat <><
