Hello all,
I think i am coming to the end of a nasty bout of PND, was diagnosed when my lo was 6 weeks old and started on citalopram, which i am still on.
However, chatting to my GP recently i mentioned that i feel as if i have had a baby who i gave birth to, but was awful and we disliked eachother, and that "bad" baby has gone back/died/disappeared and i have been given my lo, who i know is my baby genetically, and who i adore, but i can't seem to link my baby as the one i carried/gave birth to...not even when i see birth photos etc!
My GP seemed a bit surprised, and mentioned they have never heard that analogy before...!
Does anyone else have experience with this or is it something that I should be alarmed about?
Thank you for reading
Xx
