Help! My best friend had a beautiful baby girl 6
weeks ago, and while I think that this should be a happy time for her, she
doesn’t seem to be enjoying it at all. When I visited the other day, she was
wearing pajamas that looked (and smelled) like she’d been wearing them for
days. She kept joking that she’s “no good at the mom thing” yet, and would try
to laugh it off, but I’m worried! She isn’t interested in going out to shop for
cute baby clothes, even though I offered to buy, and she says that she’s not
ready to come to our “moms group” which meets just once a month for a few hours
because she says that she doesn’t want to burden her husband. What gives? How
can I help her get out of this funk? Should I be worried about her or her
little girl?
