Sounds like maybe PPD talk to your doctor. Try talking to your husband as well about how you are feeling and see if you can come up with some solutions.

Could definitely be ppd. You can talk to your dr or try to get in with a therapist. That might help.

You won't always need meds. I personally need meds. But therapy can work well for most people. Maybe try that first and see if it helps? If not meds can be a backup plan?
