But, looking back, being overwhelmed was the major cause of my anxiety. I think the second time around, like you said, will be different. Glad it was for you! When are you going to update your site?? I'd like to see pics of the little one!little miss melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06626445438455846617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6394781832274649333.post-501816288167312652007-03-01T07:05:00.000-08:002007-03-01T07:05:00.000-08:00This is very interesting to read, and I'm sorry I ...This is very interesting to read, and I'm sorry I didn't know you were going through anything like this because perhaps we could have helped each other!<BR/>After having baby #2 and finding myself telling people how much healthier I felt mentally the second time around, I have wondered quite frequently if what I felt after #1 was more than just the baby blues. I think it probably was, but I didn't address it properly. Not to mention the fact I am married to Mr. Mind Over Matter! <BR/>Anyhow, I think you'll find that if you have a second it is so much easier. Crazy at times, but doesn't leave you feeling so overwhelmed at times that you feel helpless.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14211805955994405751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6394781832274649333.post-14453305855532798312007-02-24T10:09:00.000-08:002007-02-24T10:09:00.000-08:00I remember your first weeks with RT, you guys had ...I remember your first weeks with RT, you guys had so many visitors. Didn't leave you much time to settle in to the new life. But you got through it! :) Second time around, not as earth-shattering. You're changing your family, not your life.<BR/><BR/>As for Britney, I second 180/360. I think the girl needs serious therapy during her "rehab" and I hope her family goes too. They all need to take a long look at what they did to contribute to Britney being so lost. That girl has no idea who she really is. So very sad. How do you even begin to rebuild your life that was so rooted in "make-believe," let alone get that lost time back with your children?LVGurlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00546677175330423205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6394781832274649333.post-25156942920416983562007-02-23T19:26:00.000-08:002007-02-23T19:26:00.000-08:00I've had several friends who went through PPD and ...I've had several friends who went through PPD and they were quite open about it. I'm sorry you went through it to whatever extent. I think becoming a mom is a bit daunting for the best of spirits!<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure if Britney has PPD. Maybe it's just the fact that she's young, had children back to back, has a failed marriage, a public life, and is obviously partying hard. I agreed with Dooce when she said she was self-medicating- but whether it is due to PPD or just life, only she can say.180360https://www.blogger.com/profile/02440839854732725686noreply@blogger.com
