[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are not a bad person. You're a person who needs help. First, you need to see your OB or your primary care Dr. ASAP for a full check-up...AND you need to tell the Dr. what you've posted above. You may have PPD and need treatment.

Next, being a SAHM is hard work with few breaks. WOH is also hard, but a different kind of hard. BOTH types of moms need breaks. Yes, your DH can/should be pulling his weight, but you need a competent parent/relative and/or babysitter on a regular basis. Even if you cannot "afford" it, you cannot afford not to do this for yourself & your sanity.

Finally, as another poster said, you need to ride-out this life stage w/your DH, seek marital counseling, and evaluate in another year +. It is too soon to be making life-changing decisions unless there's abuse/neglect in your home. Give DH a chance, but please, please be clear with him on exactly what you want, how burned-out you are, and allow him to express his feelings, too. Marriage counseling will allow you to do this.

Get to a Dr stat - and you need help with that baby immediately. This does not make you a bad person at all. Parenting is incredibly hard and why people try to sugar-coat it is beyond me.[/quote]
