I have a history of depression and was very worried about PND when I had my DS (who is now 14 months) but, to my great joy and relief I was fine.
I gave up breastfeeding at 11 months and since then have felt worse and worse.
The doctor has sent me to a councelling service who think that i possibly have PND (its definatly some form of depression) and that it may have been masked by the breastfeeding hormones.
The thing is, we are trying for another baby - Due to DH's age its kind of now or never - and I do want to have another child - I am just really, really scared that I might go into total metldown if I combine the pregnancy hormones with whatever is going on in my head at the moment.
Does anyone else have any experiance of this?
