Definatly related to the pregnancy! postpartum depression can can go off and on and all the way till a year post! Or so my doc says. I luckily just had depression from the second my child was born till we went home, 2 days post. lol. i didnt even touch him or want to for that matter. I cant recall that even changed a diaper till he was at least a week old. needless to say my hubby bonded with our son at birth,lol and to this day my 9 mos old son would go to his dad before he would come to me,lol. something about those first bonding hours maybe??? i dont know. but yes to answer your question, the depression is defiantly pregnancy relatewr, or post pregnancy shall i say. sometimes it can get so bad the docs have to prescribe a medicine to control it. hope ya dont get that bad! get luck !
