Baby Blues

Mrs. GEKMrs. GEK
in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

For those of you that are further along than I am (baby was born 1 week ago today), how long did your baby blues last.  I'm not depressed, but I cry at the drop of a hat. Any suggestions on how to get through this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

    i had baby blues sooooo bad for the first week and a half, i am now just starting to feel a little better, just try to remind yourself that it's the hormones and you WILL feel better soon, good luck

    Hey!!!

    I was like that for the first couple of weeks after DS was born. Everything made me cry, and that is not an understatement. It definitely passed though. :) If after a few weeks you still feel that way, call your doc. :)

    HTH

    Me = trainwreck for the first couple weeks. Crying because you don't know why exactly you are crying? Been there. Fear not, you are not losing your mind. Hormones are pure evil. :)

    10-14 days...I cried a lot. I cried a lot over how much I loved my DH and how much I loved LO-Especially before bed. But we also found out my sil has breast cancer that week so it didn't help my baby blues.

    Lasted about 3 weeks for me. What really helped was getting out of the house or just going on walks. It was horrible though and I really wished someone would have warned me about the baby blues. I cried over everything and just wanted to shut myself off from everyone. Things got better. If they don't, talk to your doctor. Hormones are crazy and stink!!
