I think tomorrow I'm going to call my OB for an appointment to talk about me maybe having ppd.. I think I might . I'm 3 weeks post partum today . Who has this ? How much better does it get after seeking help ? What do they do to help you ?
I didn't breastfeed, I don't think it matters too much though. I've heard of women not wanting to breastfeed anymore because of their PPD and not wanting to be around their baby. But with me formula feeding didn't have much affect I don't think. I tried breastfeeding but just couldn't. I still bonded with her, even with formula feeding we have an amazing bond regardless.
Yeah I will definitely call tomorrow !! Thank you 😘 looking forward to getting help and makes me feel better you got help and they helped you :) do you breast feed ? Does that matter ? @their.bomb.ass.mom
No problem. I unfortunately found the only thing that helped was medication. I wouldn't hold off on it this time though. I did thinking I could power through it, and post partum depression is so much more different than depression, with a baby being involved you never want to let it go too long. Hopefully you can get the help you need!
I've always had depression in and out of my life but have never seeked treatment for it , either just not wanting to take medicine or didn't have health insurance but now I feel like I can't ignore it with a baby around . Thank you for your input , I'm hoping I can find something to help @their.bomb.ass.mom
I had it after my first, but I dealt with depression way before ever becoming pregnant. I saw my regular doctor about it and they upped my dose of antidepressants I was already on before my daughter and then added a mood stabilizer to that. It helped tons.
