Anxiety about baby health
I delivered a baby boy 5 months ago via c sec. I tried many ways but there is no milk supply and couldn't breastfeed my baby. This is kinda killing me inside from past 5 months. Due to formula, he has developed digestion issues and till 3 months I used to burp for 40 mins minimum for every 2 hours feed day and night continuously without sleep. Even now I am not able to sleep continuously for atleast 4 hours a night thinking he may need me at night staring at him. Other symptoms - anxiety, anger, no appetite to eat, guilt of not breastfeeding, guilt if i m doing wrong when someone corrects my motherhood like y no headcap, no socks, y medicine for gas etc.
Please help me.
