Yes! We also had a difficult experience with a PPD who made things worse in many ways by needing a list with explicit instructions for every task yet having a very limited set of things she was willing to help with. Also emailing us when she was off to set boundaries she wasn’t willing to talk about in person then scolding us for emailing back outside of her working hours. Seems like all she wanted was for me to pour out my heart to her, but I didn’t have anything to pour out. And she didn’t feel safe anymore anyway. I needed real physical help not her emotional support right then. We thought we were so smart with #2 to have this lined up, but the details of how they work and whether that fits you really matter.
