Any bipolar mommies here???

me is everything ok

@bwhmom1015, Yes, thank you. I was just wondering if any of you mommies experienced ppd and how you coped. My doctor says I am at a much higher risk for it and it terrifies me. I want to be the best mom I can be. And I can't do that if I'm depressed.

@babyvicky, honestly I had it and cried all the time the first 3-4 weeks. Then I decided to go back on my depression med and it helped tremendously! if you breastfeed find out if your medicine is OK to take. I was like you and scared of what was gonna happen afterwards. But you will have good days and bad. The fact you are already worrying makes you a good mommy 😊. if you need to talk about it feel free to message me anytime

Thanks so much for sharing!!! @bwhmom1015

@babyvicky2016, you're welcome

I have an almost 6 month old son and guess what ... I'm 18weeks prego AGAIN!!! My poor emotions are on a roller coaster ... I suffer from depression ... It is very important to have a few people who truly understand what you are going through and have a support group with good honest communication! I am lucky to have my mom close by and an understanding SO ... They know if I get over whelmed I will ask for their help even if that's at 2am ... The key is support and open communication! Good Luck and you always have support here!

Thanks for sharing @wrangler14_06 !!! I do not have any friends or family near by. But I do have an extremely supportive husband thank goodness. I just always feel like I am a burden on him because of my illness. But any ways I have a script for an anti-depressant ready just in case and I am going to take advantage of all you lovely ladies!!! 😀

Well we are always here for you! I have only been on this app for a week or so but I have not come across one person yet who was negative or judgmental ... That's what our husbands/SO's are for to support us and we are here to support them !!!
