I couldn't exactly describe it either, the closest I can come is saying it was like this overwhelming sense of doom. I remember telling my midwife that I would of never gotten pregnant if I had of known I would feel that bad. Thankfully I was treated and quickly recovered. Yay Zoloft! :)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01598524571479954748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-22158652200782480822010-08-06T14:10:22.803-04:002010-08-06T14:10:22.803-04:00Great post!

My OB treated it very successfully with natural progesterone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-46746620865483651872010-07-27T17:28:00.371-04:002010-07-27T17:28:00.371-04:00Does anyone know of any research done linking PPD ...Does anyone know of any research done linking PPD to anaesthesia during delivery, or to C-sections? I've always wondered if natural childbirth lowers the incidences of PPD.<br />-Candistill figgurin'https://www.blogger.com/profile/18273299286457804834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-70292476584477986502010-07-24T11:04:23.304-04:002010-07-24T11:04:23.304-04:00Emotional amnesia is a really good description... ...Emotional amnesia is a really good description... but it goes beyond forgetting how to feel... at least it did for me. I know I was doing "all the right things" because no one knew. But I don't remember a period of, at least, a few months of my first experience with PPD. Amazing stuff... the fracture some of us deal with after birth.<br /><br />The amazing thing for me is that each subsequent experience with PPD has been LESS tormenting and troublesome. I've still HAD is after each birth (now 3), but the depths seem to become less each time. My only explanation for this is my reliance upon the Lord currently... and how it has become deeper and more profound steadily since after my first PPD experience. I know the two are integrally connected.<br /><br />I appreciate your blog. Can't get here often as I'd like, but I like it when I get here! ^_^Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901588112351881534noreply@blogger.com
