Anyone on here a first time mommy with PPD? (Post Pardum Depression). I was actually diagnosed with PPD during pregnancy and it just worsened after I gave birth to my son. I really need someone to talk to. I'm a stay at home, so I get really lonely. My son is 4 months old.

First Time Mommy
Hi I'm a first time mom. 23 ex Navy and currently a stay at home mom to a 7 month old baby living in spain. I related to your post as I haven't been able to get rid of my ppd and I haven't found much support anywhere or anyone that understands what it feels like to resent your child (not implying that you do), however that's how I feel. Every one tells me my child is a blessing and the most precious thing in the planet but I don't feel that attached to my baby like I should. Everyday it's a battle to not loose patience with this little human that needs me. So far what I've done to cope is joined many groups to talk about the struggle and meditation. Lots of meditation. I don't know if this will help you or give you hope but personally I believe there's a light at the end of the tunnel for us, we just have to find it. I wish you luck and just know you're not alone in this.
You are not alone! I too suffered with pnd after having my 2children 12months apart! It took just over 18months before that 'rush' of love came to me. I find I have to make a real effort to be affectionate. Even now and my youngest is 6 in may!
