I can relate to your post-partum depression and I’m so glad to hear that you were brave enough to admit you needed some help. Well done! Thanks for sharing your story!

I’m glad you had a good support group. It certainly does take a village.

I am thankful I was able to get help. I just hope that help would be advertised more often so women know they have somewhere to turn to.

One of the hardest things to do is admit we need help and take action. It is so hard to accept that we have very little control over what happens in this life. Faith and trust in a power greater than ourselves is the only way to find peace. Good for you in seeking help and thanks for sharing something so personal.

Reading this brave post and all of the comments, brings my feelings rushing back. I would worry every minute (it seemed like) that I would drop him or hurt him in some way. Or that he would stop breathing. It was crazy, I had no peace. Sharing stories like this helps everyone who reads it, thank you Bianca and Chris!

There was a point just after our second was born, when I honestly thought my husband would have to get me committed. And here I was The Second Time Around — I should have this!!?? But thankfully I had a great support network who swooped in and gave me a few days of much needed rest, and I was able to bounce back. I’ve always remembered that — I didn’t do it alone, and I feel so bad for anyone who doesn’t have that help.

I was very much the same way. My husband would check on them at night, because I couldn’t. I would sit there and watch them breathe, so scared they might stop. Even when they were a little older, I did the same thing for years. I never imagined there was help.
