I have been on the Bump for over 3 years and I just found this board.
I guess I should introduce myself.... I'm Heather.
I have a 2 1/2 year old DS who I experienced severe PPD with for over 6 months before getting help and DD is just over a week and this time the depression started during the pregnancy. So right now I am in the delightful limbo stage where we are hoping that the PPD is minimal or non-existant but there is little to no chance of that.
And if it does come back there is always better living through chemicals (not my favorite thing but definitely not the end of the world)
Re: Wow....they did a really good job of hiding this board.
Congrats on your little girl, Im glad you found this board. I dont have PPD but did suffer sever baby blues that lifted around 7weeks. I just wanted to tell you, I emailed the mod for 3-6 and she forwarded my email to someone in charge of this board or something. Anyway, I wrote a big long email and she wrote back 1sentence saying "were not hiding the board, were trying to make more sub boards because the boards are getting 'congested' ".
OKAY??? So photography gets its very own board but this is a sub board? She basically didnt answer anything I said in the email. It was a joke.
anywayssss....
That really does seem silly. Especially considering how many different boards potentially have member who need this one. If they all could easily find it (as in, it being its own board), I think a lot of ladies would be much better off.
