now I'm beginning to freak out...I'm getting closer and I pray i Dont have post partum depression because I had IT w my daughter and I pray I have the strength and confidence to deal w his emotions and mine...I'm scared about the whole teething and getting him on a schedule part of parenting any suggestions...
My sister suffered severely with PPD, it was scary. I spent a lot of time listening to her on the phone at 1 in the morning. I would go to her house and help out, let her sleep and reassure her that she was doing great and it would be okay. I don't think it's a one size fits all thing. It depends on what you need. I knew what she needed because she's my sister and has suffered from depression in the past. I think you need to know who your closest supporters are and let them know that you may need them. They'll know what to do.
awhhh thanks I needed that..this is officially my first time because I was young so my mom helped...it was eleven years ago..mentally I'm a lot stronger...
You'll get right back in to the swing of things. You got this and you're going to be great! as far as PPD goes, please make sure that those close to you are aware that it is a risk. Help them understand what the signs are and tell them how they can help. It's so scary doing this all over again, I know. Have no fear, it's in your makeup as a woman to just know what to do.
Please pray and send positive vibes
Trigger. Please ladies, if you pray - please please pray that God's unwavering strength and peace just covers my husband and I over the next 24 hours. If you don't pray, keep us in your thoughts. I'm one hour from being induced to deliver my stillborn son. I'm not dreading the pain of labor and delivery. I'm dreading the emotional pain afterwards, once he's here. I don't know how I'm going to do this but I know we as mothers are strong. I'll do what I have t...
Sooooo Athena has to have the surgery 😥😥😥😥 I've been bawling I'm a mess ! I can't believe this is happening to my poor child ! Why ? What did I do that caused this ? I'm seriously on my knees bawling ! As much as I tried to prepare myself, I wasn't ready to hear those words . In 3 months she will have her cranial surgery & I pray to God she has a easy & speedy recovery ! Please pray for my baby ladies ! She really needs them !

I'm such a sucker for these!! Unfortunately I'm rocking the baby to sleep and I have no clue what color my underwear is. I'll have to get back to ya'll!!
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
OK...thanks ..I have suffered depression as well and was diagnosed
with post traumatic stress disorder..so I'm just going to pray for the best..I'm older now so this may go really smoothly.
