I wish I knew that postpartum overwhelm can look like snapping and feeling angry at everyone. When you are running on empty and so incredibly tired, irritation can take over before you even notice it’s happening. To the mama feeling guilty for losing her temper today, you aren’t a bad mom, you are just exhausted. Give yourself some grace. 
and hydrate and grab a snack

I wish I knew this too. It’s hard when your running off of limited coffee trying to function and keep up with the kids

This!! I had no idea why I was so angry all of the time when i was supposed to be living in the happiest time of my life. I couldn’t figure it out, I thought there was something wrong with me. I wish they talked about post partum anxiety and rage just as much as they do depression
