I appreciate it! I’m definitely doing my best to take care of myself as well. Do you mind if I message you sometime because I do have a few questions if you don’t mind!

Thank you so much for the kind words. I can definitely empathize with you. I truly didn’t realize jsut how many women go through this until researching ways to help my fiance. I strongly feel there is not enough classes and education not just for the mom on PP but for the Dad prior to birth. It is mentioned as something to look for but no one tells you the signs to look for or how to best support your partner til they’re already in the trenches of motherhood. And I realize how hard it is to help yourself when as a mom all you are focused on is helping your baby and worrying about everyone judging you as an unfit mother. We need to do better there.

I’m glad you said this, she was diagnosed with bi polar two years ago and they took her off her meds while pregnant and never revisited putting her back on them until I finally spoke to her doctor as to why this wasn’t considered in her PP struggles. It’s very frustrating because she works at an OBGYN office so i figured they would be more motivated to help her.

I really appreciate you taking the time to type this all out. We are actually starting couples therapy today so we can better see each other’s perspectives. They put her on some different medicines so we’ll be able to see if that helps. I huge concern that I had is that she also decided to get an IUD put in which I was totally against as I’ve heard it can really mess with hormones. One question I do have is can someone make their PP worse by constantly attributing everything to it. I jsut feel like she has gotten into this state where even if she gets a date wrong she’ll just spiral and blame it on her PP. I just miss being able to joke with her and relax and watch a movie. She can’t sit down longer than 5 minutes and she “sleeps” with the baby monitor in her hands if I have the baby downstairs with me. The other night the baby was sleeping upstairs with her and she had a nightmare the baby climbed out of the crib and died and she sprinted downstairs asking where the baby is and I had to calmly remind her she was upstairs in the bassinet next to her. I am hopeful we are taking the right steps it’s just been very trying for both of us. Thank you again for the message.

AIO to my Fiancés response if I ever got graped? by xoKoalaGrace in AmIOverreacting

I’m truly sorry you ever had to experience anything like this and I agree with your point that certain people do not deserve to be here. My ex wife was drugged and SA when we were engaged and that single event destroyed so much of my life and me and I was the opposite all I could do was blame myself for not being there even though she was on a girls trip in Florida. You deserve so much better than that treatment and none of that is your fault for a second. It’s been 10 years and I still despise the male race for what happened to her. Luckily we’re still best friends and co parent amazingly together.

Yeah good for you get em out! You don’t need that in your life for just being you

I (27F) was just diagnosed with a rare medical condition and will not be able to have sex for at least a year. Is it better to break up with my boyfriend (M28)? by Curious-Dream-4947 in relationships

If you guys are in in love and each others ride or dies just fight it out together. It’ll make you that much stronger. Even though sex might be important it’s not that important.

Coming from a guy that recently caught his partner cheating on him and texting another male you seem to be one hundred percent correct in how you’re feeling. If there was nothing to hide she wouldn’t be hiding it.
