After I had my 2nd everything was going well and I thought that I was coping well.My husband and my 11yo was helping + my inlaws were there too everything was fine,well thats what I thought.By the time she was 1 1/2 I started feeling down,bad moods,snapping at everyone,stressing out, I just thought it was the new work load that I had but when I went to the doctor for a checkup and he asked me how I was feeling,it just all came out.I was crying like my baby and I thoght I was going to explode and he turned and said that I had PND. I thought no way as when I had my first I didn't feel like this.Then he explained all the symptons of PND and u have it,I had it.He said that he could put me on anti-depress tablets.At first I said no but then I thought about what I might do to either the baby or myself,so I went on them.One week later I started feeling better.I was coping with the baby and in myself I was feeling happier about everything.After being on them for 2years I knew it was time to stop,so 2months ago I stopped,and guess what,I feel GREAT.Some people don't agree with having these kind of pills,but sometimes you have to.I say if it is going to help you in the long run you should do it.Don't hide the feelings that you have because for some people PND does happen and the sooner you get help for it the better you will feel.and the last thing we all want is to be turning into our screaming mothers.Don't worry as this does get better,sometimes quicker than others BUT IT DOES GET BETTER.
