After you have your baby, the last thing you want to feel is depressed! Not that you can help it. How did you get through this period? Please leave tips on how you got through this time, you may be helping a new mom get through it!

Please let your doctor know what you are feeling. It is totally normal. You are not alone. Make sure you get time for yourself. Pamper yourself. You are not the only one that can be with the baby. Hopefully you have a support system that can help you through this rough time. I know it doesn't seem like it right now but this will pass.

I had depression after I had my baby, and I am over it now. My was because of hormones, I litterally had no progestrone in my body, it completly dropped out, so thats whay caused it. I had to get hormone shots and take hormone replacement pills. I did not have anyone to talk to during that time, so I thought that I would open up a discussion that maybe could help other mothers out there that were going through the same thing.
