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 ?
Please help! My doctor is trying to induce me before 40 weeks because she's going to be off on my due date and says my placenta is starting to look old. How do I get labor started?? I don't want to be induced for no reason and I'm thinking I won't have a choice. Please help. What do I do to get things going?
My dad doesn't think I can do this #need help.
This was an ad on Facebook. Seeing what a lot of people were saying in the comments I was wondering...do you think this is age appropriate? I'm just curious what the R&R ladies think.
I don't care what ppl think of me, but I'm seriously considering putting my baby up for adoption. I love her with all of heart, but doing this alone is hard. Every single night she just screams to the top of her lungs and I do everything to soothe her. I don't know what to do at all. I wish I had some kind of help. I don't have a single ounce of help. I don't know a single soul in Minnesota either.
Thanks for all the ❤ guys! I think I'm in shock! Labor story in a bit I'm being attacked with visitors lol

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.

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

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!

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

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.
