Postpartum Depression
Is this totally weird?
I started taking lexapro for PPD a little over a week ago and already feel better. Not 100% but I know it takes time. I notice that when my mind has time to wander, I always think about the birth of my son. It was a tough and scary delivery but he is healthy and perfect. I notice that I feel almost sad that labor and delivery is over. You would think getting past that would be good. Its like, for 9 months you're pregnant and it all leads up to this moment then it is all over. I'm so happy my son is here but I just can't get this out of my mind. Does that sound completely odd? I need to keep myself busy so I don't think about this stuff!

Re: Is this totally weird?
I think alot of people feel the same way about their weddings. Ya know, it takes all that time to plan and then it's just over and done with. I'm sure anything that your wondering mind thinks about falls in the realm of normal. Godk now your thoughts are way more "normal" then mine are.
It's been 4 days on the Lexapro. I'm still feeling a bit "off" but I think good things are going to come out of it soon. :::crosses fingers:::
Normal, I think! I still flash back to my deliveries. Afterall, these are the most important days in our lives.
Enjoy your little one!
