I just had a baby 3 months ago. I also have a five year old and a 2 year old. I feel so depressed all the time about everything but my kids. I did not have any kind of depression after my first 2 kids. I am afraid to talk to my doctor about this because he will probly tell me its post pardom depression, but my kids are a highlight in my life, not the dark spot. Can post pardom depression involve other thing than just your kids?

hey sweetie....post pardom is not a bad thing and it is certainly not your fault. that is what i had to get over when i talked to my doc about it. i was in denial for 6 onths before i did something about it. i am so glad that i did talk to my doc. i have never flet better. also think about your kids. they deserve to have a mother that is up to par whith everything that is going on in their lives. if you are depressed then you can't be. i have been on meds for 3 months now and i have such a good time with my son now. talk to you doc. just because yo unever had it with your other 2 doesn't mean you don't have it now. do it for yourself and your kids. also post pardom had nothing to do with your kids. it had to do with the hormones and chemicals running through your body. yes stress and activities can make it harder to function and make it worse, but the over problem has nothing to do with you or your family, but your body and it's recovery. i did lots of research on this and i also went to thereapy becuase my doc recommened it. my therapy taught me how to deal with the stressful moments and helped me become me again.

Real happiness and peace can be ONLY found in submitting to the commands of the Creator and the Sustainer of this world. God has said in the Qur’an: (Truly, in remembering God do hearts find rest.)
(Qur’an, 13:28)
On the other hand, the one who turns away from the Qur’an will have a life of hardship in this world. God has said:
(But whoever turns away from the Qur’an, he will have a hard life, and We will raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment.) (Qur’an, 20:124)
This may explain why some people commit suicide while they enjoy the material comfort money can buy. For example, look at Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam), formerly a famous pop singer who used to earn sometimes more than $150,000 a night. After he converted to Islam, he found true happiness and peace, which he had not found in material success.

You may need to check your diet.
a simple blood test could tell alot
about your system. Give your doctor
some history on why and it could be
stress, a wide number of things that
are effecting you. But the best way
is to consult with your doctor to ensure
that your main focus is your kids.
You owe it to yourself to take care of
you and role model the best you can be.
Have no fear, it most likely is a simple
thing that can be easily adjusted.
It is so nice to see you love your
children. They are very lucky to
have you in there lives. Don't
forget about yourself.

You are most likely overwhelmed. I have a 14 year old boy and a 10 month old daughter and I've felt the same as you for months. Please talk to your Dr. and he/she may put you on the proper medication to get you feeling like yourself again. I just started medication a few weeks ago and I'm starting to feel a bit better. Good luck and don't forget, Motherhood is the toughest & most rewarding job on Earth.

Nothing is wrong with you. you are just a little overwhelmed with everything that's going on. You just have baby blues. You love your kids I'm sure of it but you are very busy and your emotions are all over the place I know I went through it.
