You prepared for this day of pregnancy/postpartum, reading all the books and following all of the Instagram parenting accounts. You're the woman who studied hard for the test, followed all the rules, and did everything perfectly. Yet somehow, you feel so different from what you expected. You find yourself crying at the drop of a hat, anxiously checking to see if your baby is breathing, and worrying you made a mistake. You worry you are "messing up" your baby and feel like disappearing. Shame overwhelms you as you think "I can't do this" and are afraid to be alone with your baby.
