Postpartum Depression

PPD or normal

So I had mild ppd with ds1 but wasn't diagnosed until he was almost 2. I just thought because I didn't have any bad feelings toward my son or trouble connecting with him why I was feeling was normal. Well with ds2 baby blues were a 100 times worse. Lately I am feeling super emotional again. It was tapering off and getting better but I feel like it's coming back. Also I am dreaming thinking of my aunt who was murdered by her husband whiLe I was pregnant. I have been able to let it o a lot because I had to for my babies health but I just can't get her out of my head. It's been like this for the last 2 weeks. I really don't know what I should do. I don't know what's ppd and what may be grieving issues. I don't want to let it go for as long as I did last time but I don't want to rush to drugs either. Any thoughts? Anyone else kinda slip back to baby blues after it had gotten better?

Re: PPD or normal

  • I wasn't sure I had PPD until about 3 months PP.  I would find a counselor who specializes in PP issues and talk your feelings out with her.

  • I would call your OB. It could be anxiety? I don't know the different signs but at least getting a recommendation from your OB may help. 

    I started to really notice PPD about 6 weeks PP.
