Feeling "normal" again?

NightmareMommy

How long did it take you to start feeling like yourself again?

I keep having crying jags over the dumbest things.

I actually miss being pregnant, which just typing that makes a lump form in my throat. I know I am still adjusting, & it's different for everyone. I just need some reassurance that this isn't going to last forever.

took me about 4 weeks. One day DH and I were talking and I realized I hadn't cried in a week!

It took me a few weeks to feel "normal."  I cried a lot as well and also missed being pregnant.  That all changed when I could finally sleep on my stomach which for some reason helped me feel normal once again.

About a month-- both physically and emotionally. I had a rough delivery, though.

I am just starting to feel like myself again. I wore heels for the first time the other day and I thought -wow I am myself again! Sounds weird, but I wore heels everyday to work for years and then I stopped when I was about 2 months pregnant. Something about walking in them just made me feel like my old self! It's weird how little things like that can make a difference.

Um... 3/7 days I'm still not normal. Is that bad?

My baby blues went away after the first 2 weeks, however I can't say I feel totally back to "normal" yet.  I had a really rough delivery though, so am still healing a lot physically.  Emotionally, I feel much better!

About three weeks for me. One day you'll wake up and realize that it's been days or weeks since you cried or felt anxious. But it's awful while it's happening. Hopefully you'll be back to normal before you know it!
