delayed ppd/ppa?

carlysuesmith

is there such a thing as delayed ppd or anxiety, or am i just crazy?  i haven't slept in months, i feel anxious and detached pretty much every day....(and my default i feel like a crappy mom).....but ds is almost one!  is this related in any way to post-partum, or is it just regular anxiety and/or depression?

It can happen anytime in the first year (or a year after you stop nursing) so I would definitely talk to your doctor about it.  I was diagnosed at 10 months post partum.  You mention you've felt this for months, so it definitely could be ppd/ppa.  I'm feeling much better and wish I had called my Dr. sooner!  Good Luck!
