PND has always been a big topic on Mumsnet but the stats on exactly how many women experience post natal depression haven't been updated for quite a while.

Please take our one question, instant poll here

Thanks

Yes diagnosed PND, The most quoted stats say that between 15-17% of women suffer from PND.

AND is also an interesting topic and one we may go back to - but wanted to do a quick poll just to get a rough idea of how many Mumsnetters have been affected by PND at this stage.

I suppose by saying "diagnosed" we're trying to make the distinction between regular and common baby blues and PND, but if folks feel they have/had PND we're guessing they'd know it was PND, even if they never got a formal diagnosis, so hopefully the poll will prove to be an accurate one.

So suppose we're saying diagnosed at the time and/or diagnosed in retrospect (even if that diagnosis was self- diagnosis), if that makes sense.
