Baby blues? Help!
Jerry77

So I had my daughter one week ago today...and I find myself so emotional and deeply sad that I can't really remember her delivery and that time is going by too fast and that I won't remember her as she is now. Anyone else with this? I just look at her sometimes and cry thinking about things like, will she lose her hair, will I remember the soft down on her face, or how sweet and small she is. Please tell me this gets better. I do have a history of major depressive disorder that was successfully treated almost 5 years ago and I was med free for a couple of years before having Charlotte. TIA!

Re: Baby blues? Help!
This may or may not pass...its hard to tell. Baby blues are normal and the crazy waves of emotional may be due to hormones tyring to get balanced. Sometimes it helps just knowing that almost every woman goes through these crazy emotions. So
Hugs, mama. I completely understand. I had a really rough bought of the baby blues when DS was born and it was completely debilitating. I was so in love with him but kept thinking that I had no idea what I had gotten myself into, that I knew nothing ab
