Coping with Anxiety
Motherhood is a roller coaster of emotions: joy, love, depression, fulfillment, anxiety, pride, thankfulness, overwhelm and exhaustion to name a few. You’re expected to sleep when the baby sleeps, but also return to work after 2-3 months along with caring for yourself and other children.
If your baby isn’t sleeping you probably aren’t either and in general you’re exhausted. You’ve tried all the things and you just can’t function anymore. Sleep deprivation is real, but the thought of sleep training brings your anxiety and overwhelm to a whole new level.
