I really love my two month old baby, I had a C-section. But sometimes I feel nervous thinking that Now my life will never be the same, this is not a responsibility of a few days, months or years but for the whole life and I will not be able to free myself from it even if I want to. It makes me feel anxious that after sometime I have to give birth another child. I have very supportive husband and nice family but I couldn't slept since the birth of my child as I have to breastfeed her after every 2-3 hours, I didn't went outside my room since 2 months and don't have time for myself. It all makes me worried what to do?

This is the most challenging time of your life. You have created a life and brought endless happiness in everyone's life. To you, ofcourse you must be happy but it is totally okay to feel this way. The most important thing is to talk about it to your support system maybe your mum, sis or husband. Let them see your vulnerability at times. Eventually, this too shall pass. It won't bother you in future only if you prepare your mind present day to deal with it with efforts...maybe endless efforts and energy.

After few months, your speep will be better. You might get chance to have me time at midnight. And remember, you will be okay. Not because everyone has to be but because you can do that. You are a mother. You have already achieved a milestone.
 You have done an incredible job. You will be fine. Try to take least stress and more relaxation in this messy kinda phase of life. Good luck.

I felt exactly the same thing, i am a  mother of a 9-month-old , when i gave birth i felt scared, alone and not able to get proper rest. I needed to eat tasteless food etc .. 
First, pls don't listen to the people who love to give advice on how to take care of the baby, and ask your mom for advice.
second, believe me time runs, feeding every 2 hours will be over soon just another 1 and 1/2 months.
third, now our emotions and hormones are unstable. try to do things which make you feel relaxed. i love to draw, so i did it actually took me away from those through and make me happy (even now)😊

Hey it’s ok to feel what you’re feeling. Remember that when a child is born a mother is born too. Your life has changed completely and it’s ok to feel anger, resentment and frustration. But like you said you love your child and that is all that matters. I know it’s so difficult and motherhood is not easy but you’re tougher. Today your baby is going to feed every 2 hours, after few months every 4 hours and then once a day. This is a phase and you will sleep again and feel like yourself again. It’s great that you’ve a supportive husband. Do not think about another baby right now, focus on what you’ve. You can always not go for another baby. Good luck to you.

Maam I’ll tell you something honestly you should talk to your mother once and understand how things have been were you the biggest blessing or you were the hurdle in your mother‘s life because I’m sure your mother manage everything in her life along with bringing you up and giving you a very good upbringing and life that’s what you have to do don’t pressurise yourself you know things work out their own ways when you have a very positive mind trust me I begin I have delivered a child after that my life was never same but it has become better over the period experiencing motherhood is one of the biggest blessings in life and your child teaches you to be a better person and better mother over the period so enjoy your journey and if you do not want to have second child it’s totally your choice just focus on the first child first and second child later when the time comes right now just enjoy your motherhood and your time
