Warning long:

So I had my baby on augest 19th threw c section, I wasn't to happy about that because I knew recovery would be hard... I got a infection from the surgery and couldn't really walk stand hold my baby or change him! My husband has been the mom & dad threw all this change/feeding the baby and me while I just sit there. I can't get out of bed by myself to pee and every time I try to do something on my own I hurt myself! I don't even feel like a mom when we go out I just hide away in the background. I haven't talked to my doctor because I'm Embarrassed! I can't do a thing for my son but pump milk out for him. I'm in a really dark place I want to just leave because I don't feel like a active part of our little family and it's killing me! I hope you all could give me some words of hope so I don't feel so alone! Thanks

    I'm totally new here too but just read your post and wanted to offer a word of encouragement. You are doing what you can for your baby and family. The fact that you are pumping milk is fantastic in itself. You gave a lot of your body to have your baby and now you need to relax and heal up. There will be PLENTY to do as soon as you're ready so for now the bright side is your husband gets to really bond with the baby which doesn't always happen. Hang in there, it will get better and consider talking to your doctor about how you are feeling.
