Avatar n tn Hi, Ive been having these same symptoms for 3 months now, since 3 weeks postpartum. All tests have come back clear. I'm at a loss and would love to hear from someone who is experiencing the same issues or is feeling better!
Avatar f tn ve been reading so many crazy stories about worn and postpartum depression. I was just wondering how many of you second time mommies went through this? And how exactly did you guys cope with it? My best friend went through it so bad and in just mega scared I might go through it as well!
Avatar f tn Hello there, indeed it could be sign of depression and depression is pretty common in miscarriage events. You and your boyfriend need each other more than ever so working on your couple could be a good thing. Another option would be to go for a therapy. You are still young so I do really think the depression is temporary and that you don't need medication. I know such event is hard to forget but you will eventually get over it.

Avatar f tn Hi hun im going through something similar with the lack of help from hubby as he works and also home bound and constant worrying. I got twins they are 4weeks now. However in not letting it get the better of me. I did get it really bad with my son 4yrs ago after his birth and i can tell you the depression didnt last long as i kept myself busy. But the anxiety n worrying came back in full force after couple of years.
Avatar f tn doesnt sound like postpartum depression just depression,not that thats any better really but do speak to your doctor or a counsellor and get some help,its an awful thing if it gets out of hand..
Avatar f tn I also began taking fluoxetine (20mg) and a low dose of trazadone for postpartum depression and anxiety. My symptoms started approximately 4 weeks after starting these medications. I drink roughly 3/4 glasses of wine per week, and take ibuprofen as needed (roughly 1 or 2 times a week to help relieve sinus headaches) Could the new meds I’m taking be causing the bruising and sweating?
Avatar f tn ) some cases are minor and will pass in its own time, but others need extra assistance from your care provider to help get your mind back to a positive outlook. With my first baby I experienced postpartum depression for the first 3mo after our son was born. My husband always checked on me to make sure it didnt esculate and I was prescribed to take more vitamin D. (Every case is different).
Avatar n tn With that though is postpartum depression can happen for up to 2 years after the birth of your child so you are going thru postpartum and pregnancy depression all in one but it normal. But make sure you sit down in talk to someone about anything you may be second guessing your self on or if you are getting over whelmed. Please dont be afraid to ask for help. Because it will eat you up inside if you try to do it alone and bottle it in.
Avatar f tn How many of you ladies have/had postpartum depression and did you take medication for it or try and "ride-it-out"? What were your symptoms and how long did they last? Ive definitely been having bouts of depression and feelings of being overwhelmed - yesterday I was in Walmart and called hubby to ask about an item and he asked me to get something else and I suddenly felt overwhelmed and like I was going to cry! LOL.
Avatar f tn Postpartum depression isn't from not bonding with the baby... I believe I had it and I had skin to skin the second my son was born.
8722107 tn?1399602652 I am now 30 weeks with neither depression or the postpartum depression!!!

Avatar f tn I am 22 weeks 4 days and suffer from severe depression.. for years now, not from being pregnant and my doctor wants to start me off on medication around 36 weeks because Supposedly postpartum depression is the worst and people end up Harming or even killing there babies and I don't want to hurt my little princess...
Avatar f tn I have been on Zoloft for years and my other children are and were perfectly healthy and so is this one so far and I only have 4 weeks left.
Avatar f tn i went two weeks later to my practitioner who diagnosed me with severe postpartum depression. My husband works away and is only home about 1 week a month. He left the day after I got home from the hospital so i was alone with a 3 year old and a newborn. My mom said she would help me if i went to her house but she just was too tired to come and help. I'm essentially on my own.
Avatar f tn I had my daughter almost 3 weeks ago and I've had postpartum Depression pretty bad. She doesn't sleep well through the night. My emotions are so messed up I cry almost every day.. I don't know what I can do to make my emotions go back to normal.
12584065 tn?1436320514 I only had the baby blues really for 3 days and then I bounced back to normal. And then this week has been even better for my mood because I have really gotten breastfeeding and I feel really good about myself because of that so I'm doing even better now too.
Avatar f tn I have had depression on and off for years. I am opting for natural birth since in the past I have had emotional strong reactions to anesthesia and pain meds. Praying for a easy birth and to not have to take anything but ibprofen, tylonol....
Avatar n tn For example for about the first couple hours or so after you give birth it is common for you to not have much interest in your baby.
Avatar f tn The baby blues and postpartum depression are two different things. Most women get the baby blues its from all your hormones trying to fall back in line. Post part depression is far more serious.
Avatar f tn I have depression and bi polar disorder everyone seems concerned about how I will handle postpartum has anyone gone through my situation and not had postpartum depression and if you did how bad was it
Avatar f tn its normal, but having them constantly for more than a week....get help!!!! Not just for your baby but for you!!
