I think I might have PND or possibly even have had a mild clinical depression for years without realising it. I am a sahm with three children, 6, 3 and 4 months old and I don’t have any family nearby or really anyone who can help much (all my friends are busy with their own small kids). Anyway I’ve made an appointment to see the GP to discuss this for the first time. No idea what to expect but I would be keen to try counselling as there are many factors that I think are affecting my mental health and I would like help unpicking it all. However I’m anxious about the fact that I have the baby with me at all times (and the older two in school holidays) - has anyone else taken a baby to counselling sessions please? Can you do that? Making a regular arrangement for babysitting just feels totally beyond me, for a start I would have to discuss the reason why and I don’t want to. DH could do it but do counsellors work at weekends? Any advice appreciated thank you!
