Hi
Thanks for reaching out. Congratulations on the birth of baby boy. What you are going through could be postpartum anxiety. I understand taking care of an infant can be exciting and stressful at the same time. Try to get sufficient amount of rest and take each day as it comes. Consult a psychologist and talk about what you are going through. A psychologist will guide you on how you can manage anxiety and feel calm.

Hi,
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of postpartum anxiety, which is common for new mothers. It is important to remember that you are not alone in this and seeking help is the first step to feeling better.
It is important to talk to your doctor or a mental health professional about your symptoms. They can provide you with resources and support to help you cope with your anxiety. Taking care of yourself is crucial in being able to take care of your baby. Remember that it is okay to ask for help and that there is no shame in seeking treatment for your mental health.
In the meantime, try to practice self-care techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, and finding ways to relax and destress. It is important to take care of your own mental health in order to be the best parent you can be for your baby. Remember that you are doing the best you can and that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

It could be the result of postpartum stress. It’s the strong feelings that make it hard to take care of yourself and the baby.
Next Steps
It would be better if you do relaxation exercises. And would be easier if you have someone to take care of you and the baby, which could help to relax a bit. Postpartum stress needs therapeutic support.
Health Tips
Take time for yourself to relax to take care of the baby.
