[quote=Anonymous]I had that sort of feeling you were describing after my first baby. There's a reason why sleep depravation is recognized as a form of torture. After my second baby, I had a postpartum doula for 2 weeks who took care of my baby at night and just brought her to me when she needed to be breast fed. I could feed her and then pass her back for diaper changing/burping/soothing. That allowed me to sleep. And it allowed me to feel relieved of responsibility, which gave me the ability to sleep. Is there someone who can do this for you? A friend or relative? Or could you have someone look into getting a postpartum doula for you? [/quote]
