Fatigue, feeling like you can't or don't care for your new baby, poor hygiene, irritability, in some extreme cases, feelings of hurting yourself or your baby. PLEASE TALK TO YOUR OB OR ANOTHER PROFESSIONAL!! There is help available, even if you're breastfeeding.

constantly thinking of events where you feel helpless, hopeless, tearful, for no apparent reason. Also getting the feeling life has let you down. Constantly feeling guilty for old events. and being alone all the time. a good way to work yourself out of it is to volunteer at a old folks home once a week. helps you see how much time you have to fill with positive things. and helps those weak and in need of human contact. You can always find a way to cheer others up, and by doing so you bring yourself out ot the darkness surrounding your mind. also has a lot to do with what you're eating...no caffeine, cokes, sugar and drink plenty of water. If you still feel very blue, go to a physician, if you don't have any insurance, check out the clinic, every town has one. they will help you, and if it takes too long to get into see someone, try a help hot line, they are on the web. good luck...

Crying, inability to make decisions, having troublesome thoughts - sometimes about the baby, can't function normally. Every day is a grey day.
