does anyone know how long after birth you can get pnd? dd is now 2.5 ex walked out on us when i was 8 1/2 months pregnant didnt fall apart or anything just carried on with life didnt have any choice as family are hundreds of miles away, birth was ok didnt even suffer from baby blues dd has had a lot of health problems, met new partner who also cheated on me but again didnt get upset. eventually met current partner but he is in army and away most of time at moment. recently im finding it really hard to cope with dd and her terrible twos find myself shouting at her for the slightest thing this weekend was the worst and i shouted at her loads really loudly then ended up in floods of tears myself which havent really stopped. dont know if i am depressed or just tired and fed up tried ringing to make appointment with dr but none available til end of next week not sure what to do next, tried talking to my mum and she told me i was a crap mother and was causing all dd tantrums bad behaviour because i shout at her therefore she thinks i dont love her sorry if this was a bit long
