I'm sure post-partum depression is playing a part in this.

I thought your hubby said Gracee was coming home?

I'm so sorry! I agree with Donna that post-partum depression might be playing a part in this. I hope things get better for you very soon.

Giving birth can cause an influx of hormones to your body, which is one reason why new mom's are up and down and up and down. It's fairly normal, and it usually goes away within a couple of weeks. The times when it does not are the times when the mom has Post Partum Depression.

With the extenuating circumstances you have, it's possible you are just out right depressed. You have had a lot of life changes over the past year, two new babies, one being taken away, it's a lot of stress for anyone to go through.

Call your family physician tomorrow, and see what can be done. I don't think it's just post-partum in this instance, because of the stress you've been under prior to having the baby.

You've been through a lot in a short time Michelle. Try to give the new baby all your concentration right now because when Gracee comes home you won't have as much time as you do now.

Sounds like post-baby blues combined with waiting for your oldest daughter. I hope you feel better soon.

I hope things are better soon. If your doctor says it's ok, you should start taking a good B vitamin. I had a miscarriage and had a terrible time with tje depression. A friend suggested the B vitamin and it really helped.

Post partum depression is probably to blame for some of it but you long for your family to be whole again and that isn't helping. If you keep feeling down call your doctor. Not all post partum depression is cause for alarm especially in your situation.
