My son has come to the world in january. Since his birth, I have been so busy till now. I have to take care of him everyday for his father is still working. Sometimes, I feel so sad that I wonder if I can make this baby comfortable and I think the elders do not look after my son in the right way. I don't know whether I suffered from postpartum depression and what I can do next. However, I read some articles about how to enjoy our lives. I feel those what I concerned are not important at all. How I live depends on my choice. Make a plan and use the spare time. Trying my best to do everything in the plan. I won't feel so upset and can get happiness from it.

I am sure your doing a great job in taking care of your baby and for making him comfortable. If you need someone to talk too when your tired and not so busy we are all here for you.

Congrats on your new baby! Its not always easy to get everything done. The first few months after every birth I had were hard! Best part is snuggles and enjoying time with your new baby! God helps all! As baby grows it gets a little easier to do other tasks too!

@Daelii Great mother! This is my first child and I think he will be the only one. I cannot imagine to have the second. I feel much stress on how to bring him up.

Yes, he is now much more easily to be taken after than before. I am waiting for his growing up.

If you feel depressed at all, mention it to your doctor. A little depression is normal since having a baby is a major life changing adjustment. Get help with the baby if you feel overwhelmed too. My babies are all grown now. It goes by so fast.

I spent lots of time after giving birth just observing my babies' facial expressions. Babies are beautiful creatures.

Congratulations! You are doing great being a mom! Just enjoy being a parent. I was on the same situation as you are now but gradually i learned to deal with it in my own ways. Reading articles about child care might also help you but it is you who knows what is best for your child.
