Thanks this topic is being discussed even some kind words simple assurance can be very helpful . For first three months of the baby , mother is subjected to lack of sleep, anxiety especially new mom ,everything is new for the mother baby's behavior to feeding pattern , and other problems of the baby like colic and gas . In this period role of father and other people at home is very important they must be kind enough to give whatever help they can
to the mother eventually the mother will learn how to cope . For me some how I couldn't get this help as much as I wanted due to some unavoidable reasons as a result I suffered from sleep deprivation that caused me visual hallucinations and extreme tiredness .
now I can share with others like me that this could have been reduced if at all I could take help from others and I could hear some words of kindness and reassurance.

First of all thanks for this topic actually everyone is so happy and behind the baby that new mom forgets to take care about herself sleep is the most important factor in new moms life if it's not balanced it can lead to serious irratability .new mom should just think about her baby and take as much rest as possible

Give her a massage during night...in sha Allah it will help her in a healthy sleep during night
