Honey, I think your just better off getting it out there. She might surprise you & be really supportive. Your mum can be your best friend through pg & baby.
Not all are so great, but there are quite a few that are.
If you put it off she might be hurt that you couldn't come to her with one of the biggest issues in your life.
BrendansMum- Sorry to hear your feeling depressed, cant say i have had PND but i do get those days here and there where one thing goes wrong and i feel like everything is wrong, i hope you feel better soon and think you should def see a doc, the longer it goes untreated (IYKWIM) the worse it could get.
Taegan- Yay on swim lessons, lys doesnt need me in the pool anymore but when she did and even now no-body talked to me cause i was the 20yr old who looked like a 16yr old with a kid. Snobby ppl. I dont like snobs anyways, but just do you dont feel alone i know what ya mean.
Hello to everyone else, my back is very sore so i dont wanna stay online too long, gotta lay down and rest, hope everyone has a good and happy weekend, even though its forecast to rain in melb
Sally (AKA Brendansmum) - I'm going through PND for the third time. Aint it lovely.
You've done an amazing job & are still hard at it! Don't forget it! I say that to every one else, but when someone says it to me I'm like 'yeah, but...I could've done this better', or 'I didn't do that'. Its all really part of being a mum. You've got no idea what you are doing til your doing it.
We all stuff up, we all make mistakes, but we are all doing the best we can for our babies & thats what counts.
It won't make your PND go away, but I hope it makes you feel better.
Go read some of my threads about my oldest. I'm having problems with her & I've lost it & done things I shouldn't have & said things I shouldn't have, but I don't know how to do this!
It is the hardest thing in the world to do. The physical things are nothing to the emotional side of things.
Having my 6 year old tell me I'm a bad mum & that she hates me cuts me up. She's told me she wants to die. It's hard, but I'm taking it one day at a time & doing the best I can.
Thats all we can ever do.
I really hope you feel better soon. If you are worried talk to your gp or your MCHN. They can help.
BTW - Sorry if I sound all motherly! I've had a few drinks tonight & I hope that came across the way I meant it! (I turn into that type after a few)
Thanks girls just want to clear up though, I dont have PND but Chemical Depression... i'm actually supposed to be taking anti's all the time and probably for the rest of my life.
Butterfly Princess Hello!!!!
Hollye, how are ya goin??
Taegan, woohoo for swimming lessons, sorry no one spoke to you though... that sucks
Skye, lol, a few drinks! I think you deserve them!
Taegan, I can't wait to take Sam to swimming lessons.It must have been so cute to watch.And to back you up, Oliver seemed lovely when we met yesterday, he was fantastic with all the babies.He made Sam smile a few times.
On the topic of m/c and cravings, I never got m/s but my cravings started pretty much instantly.I would drink 2 liters of Apple Juice a day!
