My hospital was just getting into recognizing Post Pardum Depression after I had Sarah. They had me fill out all sorts of questionaires at my 6 week post partum check-up on how I was feeling. I told my doc. that my baby blues had gone away but I DID question him about medicines and breastfeeding and he said there were meds. he would have prescribed if I needed them. Sorry, I know that doesn’t help you much but there ARE doctors who feel differently than yours.
I personally think we should all thank Brooke Shields b/c without her book this issue may not have gotten the recognition it deserved! I hope you are able to be put on something to help you. YOU deserve to be happy so you can enjoy your gorgeous little gal!
BTW – How did you do the slide show? It’s soooo cool and I’d love to do one too!
