Congratulations on being discharged. Scary is definitely the right word to describe it.

Hello Heather

Welcome to the forum and thank you for your positive post which will be very helpful to other mums recovering from PP. I'm glad the MBU was a fantastic place for you to recover ...... it must have been very scary having had other children without suffering PP.

Congratulations on being discharged. I'm sure you're enjoying all the comforts of home with your newborn son and family.

Take care.
