You don’t feel connected to your baby and you’re nervous you might do something to hurt them. It’s scary having these thoughts while also being constantly worried about their well-being. You’re so overwhelmed and anxious you find it impossible to relax or enjoy this special time, and the unsolicited advice from others is making you second guess if you’re doing anything right.
