[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks for the insights to those who responded. A follow up question since it came up a couple times (and sorry in advance if this is a dumb question) - what is PPD like and how does it manifest? Are there things you can do beforehand to avoid it/lessen the blow?[/quote] Discuss PPD and PPA with your spouse, mother, close friends before hand so everyone knows the signs. I will forever be grateful to my older child’s former nanny who came over to visit us and said very gently to me, “you just have postpartum anxiety”. That one line made me immediately hopeful and immediately seek help. [/quote]
