wow i did with the second one, i also gained too much weight and stayed sick a whole lot. I would never hurt a child, but I did sometimes wish i would disappear..stay in my room as much as i can, I wasn't near family so i didn't have any help.
Postnatal depression i had for ages.I was very weepy and frustrated at myself.
I had this after both children. I could go upstairs and cry about nothing. I didn't want to hurt anyone either, just very emotional. My doctor did not want me to try and wait it out. She said it was nothing to mess around with. She also said it was worse because it would be during the winter when many people get depressed due to the weather being so bad. I took a very small dosage of anti-depressants and boy did people see a change in me. I took it through Winter and stopped in the Spring. Just a little bit went a long way.
I suffered with it terribly after my 3rd child. I didn't want to hurt the baby but had some definite feelings about hurting myself. I actually had to leave home and go to my Mom's house for a few days to get myself together. I couldn't stop crying. Thankfully I have a wonderful husband who supported me through it. I got on an antidepressant and slowly got better. It was one of the roughest times of my life. I feel for anyone who is going through it.
