Any new mommas experiencing postpartum depression?? I think I am and it's starting to affect me, I…

Call them sooner.

That's the soonest I can get it with my ob otherwise it's just a nurse practitioner

A nurse practitioner could work! The sooner the better

do you have any toughts about hurting yourself or others?if not its probably baby blues. i had that the first couple of weeks and it went away like a week or 2 ago and my son is 5 weeks old.

give it some time.

My midwife suggested I go to mommy groups around my area for ppd

Seek help as soon as possible even if it's with someone besides your primary OB. PPD is serious and it can escalate rather quickly for some. Talk to someone who is always around you so that they can keep an eye out for any new symptoms that you may not realize.

I think I have baby blues too I am just sad I don't know why my baby is just a week old I feel overwhelmed @kayla767 how did it go away and when ?

@paula91, it went away on its own and it can take up to 3 to 4 weeks sometimes less. its hard at first with a new baby but if u still feel like that at your follow up visitcor if it gegs worse and to the point there u feel like harming yourself or others or once you start losing interest in your baby contact your doctor asap. but like i said give it time. its normal to have the baby blues dont jump right to postpartum depression right away. i read up on the both of them right awat and it helped me get a better understanding with being a new mom. and my baby is 5 weeks old today.

Thanks I appreciate the information @kayla767

@paula91, you are very welcome. i hope everything goes ok.

I am. And it sucks. And my post pardem appointment is November 11. And I have a psychological evaluation on November 2
