Is this PPD?

All I want to do is sleep. I crawl out of bed around 3-4pm... yes, that late. I feel like I sleep as much as DD. When I'm awake, I don't want to do anything. I have to drag myself to get out of the house. Nothing but the laundry ever gets done anymore. Even after sleeping for 12 hours, I still want to take a nap.

I don't feel apathetic or sad about anything. I love my LO more than anything and feel an extreme bond with her. I just have an overwhelming feeling of lethargy.

But I have a history of depression pre-pregnancy.

Could this be PPD, even if it's the only symptom?

    a) CUTE baby : D

    b) I remember reading somewhere that severe insomnia or severe sleepiness can be related to PPD.  I think it's definately worth talking about or asking someone (especially a doctor).  Even if it's not PPD, that's a whole lotta sleep and there may be something else wrong.
