Hello everyone
I just wanted to share my story with you all and to let you know that you will get better.
I had a straight forward pregnancy until 34 weeks when I was admitted to hospital (40 miles from home) with severe pre eclampsia and HELLP syndrome, DD was born at 35 weeks and spent time in SCBU and I spent time in HDU. When DD was 7 weeks old I was diagnosed with severe PND and was admitted to a specialist Mother and Baby Unit with my DD were we remained for 5 weeks. I was discharged home and received home support from the staff at the unit, my HV and GP. I had quite a few rough times and relapses along the way but slowly they got less!!. I am still taking medication but am so much better than I was and now enjoy being a Mummy. I just want you to know that you will get there it just takes time.
