I can't handle this ppd anymore. I have meds but those take time to kick in, I can't see a therapist, I've tried talking to friends and family but all they say is I'm strong I can do it or that I just need a good cry . My husband is gone for work again, I can't do it anymore. Both kids just won't stop crying I just need a break, I can't find a quiet place to sit for a few minutes because my toddler is banging on the door. My chest hurts and my stomach hurts from crying, I still need to feed my toddler something but my baby won't let me put her down without her crying, all day she's been nursing and being held or else she cries. It's to much. I just can't do it.

I’m so sorry that you’re going through. This. I don’t have experience with ppd but it sounds like you need to see your doctor. Do you have any family who can take your kiddos for a few hours so you can have some you time?

Is there anyway that you can pump? When I would get overwhelmed with dealing with an attached baby & a toddler that wants attention, I’d set out a lunchable in the play room, turn on a movie, & bottle feed my youngest until he fell asleep & sit in the living room and relax for a few minutes.

Oh honey, you need a break.
If you let your closest dearest family or friend know how bad it is could they come to you? Just knowing there is a break in your future might help.
Also talk to your husband, he may not be able to go away to work for awhile, maybe he can find something closer to home.
Call your doctor, medication night be able to really help and you can take your Littles with you to the appointment if you need to.
And just hang on. They've got to sleep sometime.
Is there a babysitter you could pay to come for an hour while you nap?
Best of luck to you, I'm sorry it's so rough

Oh I see you have meds, is take them so they can kick in and go survival mode until then.
Finger foods in the coffee table and movies for sure.

Toddlers are so difficult

Thanks everyone. My husband should be home soon. He is military and it can be hard for him to get time off, and him leaving is part of that. Makes it hard.
