I had PND with dd (now 2yo) and now I'm pregnant, in my 2nd trimester.
I'm so tired all the time I'm finding it hard to get through each day. That was the main issue with my original PND.
My dd has a tummy bug and has been awake loads over the last 3 nights. One morning my Mum was here so she let me go back to bed for 2 hours. Today my dh let me go back to bed for 2 hours but when I got up dd was so whingy because she was tired. Her sleeping has been getting bad again and she fights sleep like no child I have ever seen. I thought she might take a nap after her lunch and I was looking forward to lying down again too. I got into bed with her because she usually sleeps better if I do. She refused to go to sleep even though she can barely stay awake. This sounds so bad but I was really loosing my temper and she kept sitting up. I wanted to physically grab her by the hair and shove her down. Obviously I didn't but the feeling like I wanted to has scared me to death. It's similar to my PND when I felt violent and I had to take myself away and calm down.
Last time I ended up on prozac, but I don't want to go down that route again, especially as I'm pregnant.
Has anyone else been here? Am I just tired or am I loosing it again? My dh says I'm just tired but he can only help so much as he works long hours. My family lives 2.5hours drive away and rarely visit. No help from friends either, most don't have children and the ones that do already have their hands full.
Sorry for the rant, I just can't believe I'm feeling this way again.
