Hey bro- I was the same way, it's post-partum. Please just understand that her hormones are so out of whack right now that she doesn't even understand why she feels the way she does. She is completely exhausted, she just went through such an incredible physical experience and she feels drained and even sometimes helpless. Are you helping her out as much as possible? Encourage her, support her, and do anything you can to lessen the load for her- let her rest and enjoy some time to herself as much as possible.
My experience: I suffured from that bad. I had my son when I was 20, I was tiny, young, and unprepared for the big change. He demanded feedings every 1/2 hour, and I got no rest. I was an emotional wreck- horrible! I wanted to nurse until he was 6 months, but I had to stop at 3.
Let's put it this way, pregnancy and labor combined were pleasant compared to the post partum. If it weren't for that, I'd probably have another.
The funny thing is after post-partum and my hormones cooled, I can't cry! It's strange......
