Is this Postpartum depression?

Question

I just had a miscarriage with twins a week ago today. I was 12 weeks and 4 days when they passed away. But now my problem is that everytime I think about it or see/hear a baby cry I want to start crying. Also sometimes just sitting and daydreaming I feel useless and like there is no point in life anymore or like I'll never get a chance to be pregnant again.
I'm 21 and married.

Answer 1

Postpartum depression is when you baby is born and you are depressed shortly after. You are depressed because you lost your babies which may not be called post-partum depression but is depression all the same and should be taken seriously. Speak to your doctor about it and get help for the sadness.

Answer 2

You still pretty young, I'm 40 years old, I have a son that is 22, and everytime that i got pregnant, for a lot of reasons, i had to go and have abortions, nowi will like to have another baby, and due to all the stupid things that i did, apparently I can't have no more, when it comes to you: yes feels like you are depresses, just give it some time, and do no think when you having sex, that you want to get pregnant again, i may not know how to express this, but mentally you will block yoursef from having another baby, just wait until the right time and try it again, i don't see any reason, why you can't not have a baby, you could have some type of weakness in the tubes, so I heard couple of years ago, that there's a procedure going on in a hospital which is located in downtown brooklyn that could help you if that's the case, and i truly beleive that once again if that the case any hospital should be able to do it, find that info, and I wish you good luck.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I had a miscarriage 7 months ago and I also went through the same feelings. My doctor informed me that because the hormones from the pregnancy were leaving my body that was causing my problems. Once the growth rate stopped when the baby died my body felt different and so did my moods. It is very similar to postpartum depression. You are no longer pregnant, whether it be from the birth of a child or otherwise, so thats what causes the mood problems. Talk with your doctor and be open about how you are feeling. I hope things get better for you.

Answer 4

It could very well be postpartum depression combined with grief. Your hormones are fluctuating because of the pregnancy, and a drop in estrogen in one of the main causes of postpartum depression. You are not useless!! You are a vauleable worthwild person who has a long life ahead of her! You will definately get the chance to get pregnant again, you are so young! Some women have many miscarrages before having a baby. Don't get discouraged and don't give up. Find someone you trust to talk to. You need to work through your feelings, and talking them through is the best thing. You will be ok honey. Don't give up!!

Answer 5

I am very sorry to hear about your loss. Postpartum depression occurs after you deliver a baby and due to the hormonal changes your body goes through, it can cause depression after birth.
What you are going through right now Im sure is very difficult and is causing you alot of grief which is perfectly normal however it may help you get through the grief by talking to a professional such as a psychiatrist or a pastor. It may take some time to get through this but you shouldnt do it by yourself! My prayers are with you!

Answer 6

Not post partum depression, simple grief, its the hardest thing in the world to lose your babies, and I am really sorry to say this, but it will continue for a while. Perhaps you should get some counselling? I am so sorry to hear that, and I really hope things get better for you
