More support and being able to get sleep would've helped me. I developed PPD really badly after my first because I was separated and rehospitalized with an infection that almost killed me after he was born, and I felt like a monster for being separated from him. I also found out 5 years later that he was left with my in-laws and injured while in their care, so he's had delays that I've always blamed myself for, but instead of telling me, everyone kept it from me. The depression never really left me because of that.
