A little about me...

Hey all. I am just wanted to introduce myself. I am a new first time mom. My little girl is now 9 weeks old and is beautiful, but I just cannot seem to really enjoy the moment as I feel like I should. I have a history of major depression anyway and I am also bipolar. This really adds to the stress of being a new mom. Anyway, that is why I am here in a nutshell. Looking forward to meeting all of you.

I know how you feel. I also suffer from depression and have for years. I had major panic attacks after my son was born. He is now 18 months and I still get depressed on a daily basis. I am pregnant again and it is definitely tough. I cannot take my full dose of medication until after the baby is born.
