Postpartum Depression

not quite sure what to think

I know that PPD has a lot to do with ill feelings towards the baby, my issue is that DD is the only thing that makes me happy. I would love to spend every single minute of every single day with her and only her. SHe is seriously the only person who has made me smile in months. I don't know if this is PPD or just depression. I hate my job, i have no motivation to do anything (clean, laundry, go to the gym, cook dinner) the only motivation I have is to take care of DD. When I'm not with her all I do is think about her and wonder if she is okay. My husband got laid off about a month ago and I'm so jealous that he gets to spend alone time with her. WDYT? Is this PPD or something more?

Re: not quite sure what to think

  • It very well could be PPD. I would start by calling your OB.

    PPD looks different for every woman.

  • Whether it's PPD or depression isnt really important.  Either way you need to talk to your doctor and start working on feeling better.  That's what they are there for.  Good luck!!!
