After first-time mum Sinziana Irimia gave birth to her baby boy, she thought life would be all sunshine and rainbows - filled with newborn cuddles and sweet family memories.
But the reality was far from that. The 35-year-old found herself highly anxious, catastrophising every situation and even fearing that her son would be better off without her.
Lots of women feel down, tearful or anxious in the first week after giving birth - the NHS calls this 'baby blues' and it's so common that it's considered normal.
