#and corrected Meghan’s ‘ I was tired’ with ‘ she was exhausted- she was breastfeeding’

Do you ever think Meghan feels / felt guilt when she looks at Archie? Obviously she shouldn’t and it’s not her fault, but I feel like that might’ve been one of the reasons why Harry constantly makes a point to mention how proud he is of Meghan for safely delivering Archie.

Probably. Even though it’s not something she had any control over, there’s already so much shame surrounding this stuff. I’m sure being pregnant adds so much guilt to feelings that you cannot control.

Meghan said she thought she was the problem, and that life would be easier for everyone if she was dead. But she was also pregnant with a baby she was already so protective of, and probably felt additional shame because of that. That must’ve been absolute hell .

And it sounds like this didn’t completely go away after her pregnancy. Harry mentioned he would come home everyday to her crying while breastfeeding Archie.

The constant mom shaming and calling Meghan unmaternal over the way she held Archie , her brief trip to the US open, or not having that baby carrier perfect makes me even madder now. She might’ve already been feeling like a horrible mom.

Harry always acknowledging Meghan’s experiences as a new mom and saying how proud of her he is stood out. A lot of men just don’t understand it. I commented on this after the teenager therapy interview. I’m sure what she went through makes him cheer her on and be a bit more understanding.
