Have you ever thought about how asking for help make you feel?
This is a good question to think about for new and expecting parents.
It's something a lot of people can struggle with, but sitting with those unconformable feelings and stepping beyond them in those early postnatal days and weeks, so you can make the most of all the potential help you hacd available, whether that's from your partner, or wider family and friends support network.
Remember - most people WANT to help, they may just don't know what you need or don't want to interfere. So be specific and asked for the help you need. You may even find it strengthens your relationships.
If you don't have a support network to help (or even if you do!), and you have the means to get external help, then do it! It could transform your postnatal experience.
