Well it sounds like you have it light , thank gosh ! ♡
bc for me I'd given anything just to have felt sad or emotional . My ppd was extreme & scary .
I'm glad you have family helping you :)  I'm sure it helps a lot , I wish I could of told someone.  
Just keep your head up ! & know your husband LOVE YOU & his new baby , your feelings are not real and you just need to fight them & tell yourself NO that's no TRUE .
GOOD LUCK ♡

I had it with my 2nd child I just cried all the time felt like my husband didn't love me of want anything to do with me. I called my doctor and they out me on Zoloft but said it would take 5 weeks to notice a difference so my mom told me to take melatonin it's a natural sleep aid and it really helped me it just calmed me down.Well I just had my 3rd baby on Friday and I had my tubes tied.I have 2 boys and 1 girl.I started feeling a little emotional yesterday because I felt like my husband didn't want anything to do with our baby girl so I talked to my mom and she helped me understand.My husband works out of town and had to leave today to go back to work and I've been so emotional since then.Ibhave family staying with me to help me out and I started taking melatonin again so I hope it helps like it did the last time.I hate going through this it is so horrible.Butni have my faith in God that he will get me through this .Thank you ladies for the advice

I talked to my doctor and got ativan for anxiety and some antidepressants.  I also told a few friends and family members who all switched off taking care of my daughter when I was having difficulty.

It's was one of the hardest things i had to snap out of ... and at the time i never knew what it was so i never talked to anyone about it because the thoughts i would have was so horrible , I was ashamed and embarrassed . I  was afraid of myself , & afraid of what if I did something to myself or my baby and couldn't help myself like almost like a black out . It was so bad that I couldn't ever watch TV , Like I'd be sitting in front of TV but have a million thoughts racing in my head I could concentrate on anything but the thoughts in my head .
I prayed and prayed and prayed !  and just told myself i would never do my thoughts . It took a long time and am thankful i was able to do it alone .
But if i knew then what i know now , I would have seeked help bc it's very SERIOUS .
But my prayers faith in god and knowing how much love I have for kids pulled me through it ♡
Prayer is great but if you have it bad PLEASE SEEK HELP ♡ BC your not alone and it can happen to any mommy after birth .
