No your not crazy.i was exactly like you when i had my daughter a year ago,Ive been taking meds since then i was told my medication would take time to work so i think thats what you need to do is give it time maybe you should talk to your midwife and she might be able to give you more advice,It does get better but at least you have taken the first steps in doing something about it.i really wish you well and im here if you need any support good luck xx

Please listen! You are NOT crazy and NOT alone. Your body is simply adjusting to it's normal, pre-pregnancy hormone levels. You carried another life for 40 weeks. That took alot out of your body. You need rest! Is someone helping with the baby at night so you can sleep. Please get rest and make sure you eat. Keep taking the meds. Please email me if you want to talk. I have been right there. This will all get better. You and your child will be just fine! jenloves2cook@sbcglobal.net

You are not crazy. Thought the same thing about myself and was to ashamed to tell anyone or seek help and I finally did after my 3rd baby. I'm glad I found this site and we all can talk to each other and help.Take care.

My son was born 09-16-07. I am just now starting to notice the same symptoms you are. I just called my dr's office today to see if I could get some help, and I am waiting for their return call. Maybe we can do this together...

Like D said, try to get lots of rest. Do you have someone who can take the baby away so you really have time for yourself ?? It helped me a lot to have a break, sometimes I coulds not sleep but just rest and watched TV. Asked your mother to have baby for a few hours or better a whole day or over night. It really helps to have that time-out. Do they understand how hard it is for you??? Tell them, ask them to cook you something. My husband used to make me one good meal a day when I had PPD. And yes, give the meds some time, it takes a few weeks. It took me 4 weeks on meds until I felt the clouds lifting. Big hug !!

Not at all I went through the same thing. With the right meds you will be ok. This is normal for woman who get ppd. Big ((((hugs)))) to you

OMG I am the same way you are! I feel horrible. I don't sleep well, have major anxiety, cry all the time. I am on zoloft 150mg. Please email me and we can chat cutiebaby_33@yahoo.com
I had my son on November 30

You are not alone - and definately not crazy. I had a daughter back in June and I cried for no reason at all most days for for a long time after she was born. I was very anxious about the baby and obessively worried about her being too hot/cold at night to the point where I drove my partner mad. The good news is that I did come out of it and so will you. You sound like you are getting help, that is the main thing - talk to health professionals and other Mothers who are feeling the same - half of the problem is you feel like you are the only person who has this and it is hard to admit to this problem - as Mums we feel like would should be able to cope, but we don't take into account the affect of the hormones, birth and sleep deprivation in the first weeks. Just keep in mind that you are not going mad, there will be an end to this, and if you need a good cry - have one - it is a release that you need. Focus on your baby and building a wonderful relationship with him and hopefully it will pass sooner rather than later. Good Luck and big hugs.

First your not crazy and your not alone. I felt exactly like you did. I've been on meds. since the birth of my second daughter back in 2005 and in October I had my son, keep talking about it try to rest when your son does. I've been taking different meds and it took time to find the right one that works. Hang in there. ((((((HUGS))))))

You are not Crazy. It does not last forever. Make sure you Talk to someone,anyone, on a regular basis just to give yourself a check-in with another grown up...

You are so not alone! I take Zoloft also I don't know if it is doing me any good. I have other issues in my life as well.
Why don't you ask your Dr for a low dose of Xanax to help with your anxiety's, It has worked wonders for me but as I mentioned I do have other issues in my life.. and the medication is one in which you must be careful with.. There is also klonopin. They are both fast acting and help you to relax... Best wishes to you and congrats on your new edition!

you are defo not mad had same feelings when had my daughter was born 7 years ago am now 8 months pregnant with 3rd and scared it will happen again but i keep talking so must you, the meds will work give it time.if you need chat please e-mail treadpops@yahoo.co.uk

You are so not crazy,in fact you are the opposite,feeling the way you feel is so normal considering all that you've been through. I had ppd severley with both of my boys,it usually starts with the delivery, it's the let down of hormones and the whole let down of the "labor high" You've waited so long to get to the point that you get to meet your baby then all of the sudden it's here and over in a matter of minutes,you find yourself wishing you enjoyed your pregnancy more, and if your labor and delivery didn't go as planned you find yourself mourning that,if your baby has any problems you blame yourself, then comes the stress of feeding,then the depression if that doesn't go right,then let us not forget the sleep deprevation, that makes everything worse not to mention it gives you more time to beat yourself up, I felt horrible for so long and I was embarassed to get help, I felt like I had no reason to act that way, I had this healthy beautiful baby what more could be wrong? I had ot reach out for help, I got on medication and I tried to get out of the house more, eventually the storm passed, now with my 3rd baby I know my pattern and have tried to prevent myself from heading down that same path, and here I am day 10 postpartum I've cried a little but I enjoy this time,I can smile and I have no regrets,with a little help you'll pull yourself up,try journaling as well and reaching out on ds will help you tremendously
