Postpartum Depression
1 Year Later PPD
My son turned 1 year this week and I think after being miserable for a year I'm willing to admit I have ppd. Although my son is the best thing that ever happened to me I feel like I'm really suffering.
When DS was born I had a horrible delivery which ended in me having no anesthesia during my csection. It was the worst pain of my life but they couldn't stop cutting because the baby needed to be out now and they didn't have time to put me to sleep until he was almost out. I missed him being born as well because of it aside from the terror of the whole thing.
I have been so depressed ever since. My relationship with my husband is poor because I'm so exhausted and irritable. The sad part is that my husband is a psychiatrist and I haven't been willing to admit that something like that could affect me or my family.
I finally agreed to see my PCP today for medicine and I just want to feel better. I'm so worn out from all of it and I want to move on and feel happy again.
