Many new mums feel high levels of anger in the postnatal period. Please remember you are not alone, you will adjust and things will get better 🤍
Postpartum anger as a new mum, read below ✨
Repost:
📷 by : "Sophie Harris | Pregnancy & Postpartum Therapist on Instagram: "Recognise any of these feelings?
If so, you are most definitely not alone!!!
SO many new mums experience high levels of anger during the postpartum period.
Why though?
Well you are adjusting to so much during this time, trying to navigate your whole world changing. You are processing changes in relationships, adjusting to days spent alone and trying to find yourself as anmother.
On top of this, you are caring for a baby, who needs your full attention the majority of the day. This is likely to cause your nervous system to feel dysregulated, and you to be overstimulated.
…. And all this on such little sleep.
So basically, it's no wonder that so many new mum's experience anger during this period.
This evening I’ve sent out a detailed guide about how to effectively manage postpartum anger via email. If you are not on my email list, would you like to be?
Either head to the link in my bio and provide your details or head to my stories where I will leave a box where you can leave your details.
I will ensure that anyone who leaves their details receives this guide.💙

If you don’t know about Lancashire Women’s Centres here’s some information on what they do. We think they are amazing 💗
When asked "So, what do Lancashire Women do?", it's sometimes hard to fit it all into one breath!
In case you're interested, here's a little bit about us...
🙌 We're a Lancashire-based charity, working alongside different partners to deliver the projects shown on the photo (...and more!).
🏋️♀️ We work to build on the strengths that all women & girls have, so that they can become more confident; especially in controlling their own life & claiming their rights.
🔄 We have a wide range of services (delivered by a team with years of experience between them) to help give a 'full package' of support, meaning you can go from one service to another to get to the bottom of whatever you're facing.
👩🦰 We're a charity run by women, for women. We have a wealth of knowledge on how to support people with the challenges they come across in life.
🟰 Our services are open to men & non-binary people as well - there is a place for everyone here at Lancashire Women.
