hi everyone
for a while now ive been feeling so tired and low and i did this self test online http://www.patient.co.uk/showdoc/40025272/ and it said i had a score of 23. i had severe depression before i got pregnant for about a year and im hoping they tell me that im just tired and have low iron. i lay on the couch all day and say to myself ill clean later and so on now my house is a mess and im getting so stressed everything lil seems so hard to do. i dont feel like harming myself or my baby. so im not sure if it is pnd. did anyone have the same experiance? how will they tell if i have pnd or just my depression coming back any help will be good -------------

I don't have depression, I'm high as a kite 
Good luck with your appt. If you have a history of depression you are at higher risk of PND, it might be worth asking for a referral to Maternal Mental Health, they'll be able to help you unravel your situation and work out the roots of your depression. -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)
