PPD from post delivery complications?

Is it possible to develop PPD pretty much overnight following the discovery of a postpartum complication? I developed & was diagnosed with a grade 3 bladder prolapse earlier this week and since then I have been feeling and acting off, PPD or just depression was raised as a possibility by both my mom and DH last night.

Anyone else experience something similar?

    Difficult deliveries and complications are usually the main reason for PPD. you will even see most moms on here were unplanned c section or had difficulties of some sort. Just talk to your doctor asap. GL

    I think mine was from being overwhelmed by my 4th degree tear and nipple trauma from a BAD latch (AND a crazy MIL)! Luckily the doctor put me on prozac and it's really helped me. I definitely think my rough delivery was to blame.

    You sound just like me with my first. I was doing AWESOME and then at about 5 weeks I started to run walk fast. Then I started to have the feeling that my vagina was falling out. That is when I realized that I had a vaginal wall prolapse. I had so much guilt about running, thought my body would never be the same. And felt depressed. I didn't go on medication, but if you need to don't feel bad. This is a difficult thing to deal with. But you are early after you delivery. I was able to do kegels and return to my working out. I will eventually have to have surgery after I am done having kids, but this is something you can live with. I had my second baby in Dec and it was the same.
