So..
My history with PND is: Went on meds (Aropax) with Ethan when he was a year old. (Should have gone on them sooner but didn't want to *admit* that I needed help) Slowly progressed my way up dosages I ended up on 2 tabs a day Weaned myself off them Oct 2006 (Wow that long ago... I had forgotten..) What worries me at the moment: I have been exploding (and I mean *exploding*) over stupid things Lots of tears and tantrums I dont feel that I *like* this baby. Actually I resent him.. I cant sleep, I'm sore, everything hurts and I am just plain OVER being pregnant. I want this THING out. It scares me t refer to this baby as a "thing". DH was p*ssing me off the other night and I could have quite happily stabbed him with a pen. Irrational and disgusting, I know. I am worried.. How will I be when bubs is born? Is this all just stupid pregnancy hormones mixed in with extreme tiredness and soreness?? Should I go onto anti d's as soon as bubss is born?? Or wait for the sh*t to hit the fan (if it does..??) I was looking forward to meeting bubs a couple of weeks ago, but now I have no interest.. Just want this thing out. ------------- formerly known as "Bee" Ethan ~ March 2003 Big 6 year old school boy!

Sweetie if I was you I'd be getting in and talking to your dr now...there are options for meds you can take while pregnant and it would be a lot better to do something now that wait for the kaka to hit the ventilation system!
Big hugs to you babe...as I just said on another thread...there must be something in the air or weather...seems like a lot of us are suffering relapses.  ------------- http://lilypie.com">
