Intro

Hello everyone! I'm new to this board and wanted to take a minute to intro myself. I am not new to the bump but I mostly just lurk on my birth month board if I've got some free time.
I have beautiful son named Graeme (pronounced like Graham) who is just shy of 5 months old. When he was born, he was extremely colicky, reflux-y and ended up having MSPI. I felt like I was being punished for something and that he was a huge mistake. I had insomnia, resented my husband and family, and had had some terrible thoughts that I don't wish to repeat.
I was diagnosed with ppd, ppa, and ppocd when my son was 10 weeks old. I have been seeing a psychiatrist and therapist since. After many medication changes and learning some new coping mechanisms, I feel like a while new person.
I feel like I have something to contribute to this board and am looking forward to being an active member.
Thank you lovely ladies for reading, and I hope you all enjoy your Sunday!
