Our son will be 1 year old, next weekend...WOW time flys!
I started to feel down at the end of October, right after I stopped nursing. I figured it was just lack of confidence because I couldn't keep up with him anymore.
I found out I was pregnant, with triplets, in November. (I had my tubes tied in January). That changed my attitude, a lot. I started to feel better and thought it was just...nothing. 4 weeks later, I miscarried one of the babies. That was hard but I stayed strong for the other 2 inside of me, I knew I had too. 3 1/2 weeks later, I lost the other 2. (begining of second trimester).
That is when my mood changed and I have not been able to shake this feeling. I don't know if it is PPD
or just the Baby Blues from loosing the triplets in December...
I am always tired. Sleeping 10-14 hours a day. Not waking with the baby (luckly I've got a great hubby who does get up with them in the AM). Not wanting to eat regular food. Only wanting chips and drinking a lot of water. Extra grouchy. Not interested in helping the kids play new games. Not wanting to have school
4 and have 2 little ones). Not wanting to go outside. Not wanting to do much of anything. Just feeling blah...
I can't go back to my OB because he was the one who tied my tubes and didn't believe me I was pregnant again. Went to ER to confirm it. Then when I bleed (during the first miscarriage
) he wouldn't get me in for an appointment. Told me to go to ER or wait 2 weeks for my next appt...
This is the only thing I can't talk to my hubby about. He is great but he doesn't believe in depression. (I don't even know if that is what it is...) I had depression before we met, but I always thought it was because of my previous lifestyle. I have a great life now, just not sure what to do.
Thank-you for any help!!!
I think it is depression, especially if you've had a history of it before! I'm so sorry about your triplets. You've gone through a big loss and I think that could send anyone into a downfall. Talk to a different doctor and see what they say. I hope you start to feel better soon and hopefully your hubby will be understanding.

because it has been so long...but not sure if it was depression or just baby blues from the loss.
I have an apointment for next week with a different OB to get complete lab work done and for a possible referal.
Again, thank-you
