Late PND

[Wacky Jackie]

I am having some depressing feelings lately. My second little girl is 4months old and it feels as if I am not coping with my two kids(other girl is 4yrs).

I was fine after the birth and from about a month ago I've been hitting these downers mostly at night. I have not had any negative thoughts about my girls but find myself getting agitated with the eldest when she wants attention.

I am usually a very fun and outging person and feel like I'm losing my identity caus I'm too tired to laugh lately.

Anyone have some advise?

Hey,

Hope you are feeling a little better! I think it is normal to feel like this, however if you feel like it everyday for more than two wks then maybe go speak to your doctor and they can arrange for you to talk to someone. I know I have days where I feel tired and irriatable and can't be bothered and that is normal.

Hope this helps hun xxx

P.s trying going out one evening for an hour, force yourself!!! Have fun and you'll feel better when you get back home.... I done that last wk and felt great xx

Hey! Tnx 4 da advise. Feel as though I hit a big slump today!!
Just wanna hold my LO and do nothing else. I think da fact that I'm going back 2 work on Monday doesn't really help.

I am actually looking 4 a support group, but I'm a bit lost as to where to find one...
Well, will try going out and see.
