Postpartum Depression Answers....

I had horrible postpartum depression with Dexter.  It never affected him, but it was hard dealing with work and stress.  Literally it was a year long struggle.  I thought I'd never feel like myself again.

After I had Annie, I started getting some questions quietly...

I'm ecstatic to report, I have had no postpartum depression this time around.  I did experience the typical baby blues for a few weeks, but they quickly disappeared.  I do appreciate all the kind thoughts and concern.  Not everyone realized how bad the ppd was the first time around, but it's good to know that the support system was there this time!

Any moms out there, please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions about my experience.  I'm happy to talk privately.  If you feel not right, overly emotional, and any feelings of harm to yourself or others, please seek help from your doctor.
