Has your Dr started you on any anti-depressants? If not call your Dr and ask for some, it's really important to get treatment.
As for your husband, men are clueless. They don't understand emotional, only logic.
We can start a my husband is so lame .... line so we can vent & post all the dumb thing the do.
I'll start....
My husband is no lame..... when the baby crys, he'll CALL me to ask "why is she crying?" ↑ |

| my man asked me witch way the nappie gose on... he always asks why she is crying ill just say 4 words and hope he gets the hint... nappy, food, wind, teeth.... it is hard for me to get to a doctors when he is at work, it is 40 mins to a bus stop or train station so it is really hard for me to get any where... why dont men understand having a baby is not easy he thinks i just sit at ahome all day feeding her and changing her bumMEN ↑ |

Hey girls,
I know what ya mean, i am still 22wks and 5days pregnant with our first baby. But my bf still says the same things, he apparently can't believe how much work he has to do when he goes to work (he works in a hot wherehouse and he think I just sit on my butt all day doing nothing. Well my god trying to ge through to him is like talking to a brick wall. I think he's finally starting to get the picture of what things are really like for me, considering i've been out and about every single day for the last week and my body is sooo sore whenever I get home. Men just don't understand...in a way it might be kind of wierd if they actually did. ↑ |

| Hey Tamekia, I am so sorry for what you are going through right now. It is such a seriuos problem for so many women. Please feel free to let it all out on this forum. It seems like you are reaching out for help(husband, doctors....) and you just need to express yourself. How old is your baby? Boy or girl? Where are you? I hope we can help!! ↑ |

| my lil girl is almost 5 months old.... why dose it seem that the normal day to day things are so hard eg, washing cloths i am getting a lil better now...coz i had a big break down and he now kind of understands but still gets really pissed off if i forgot to do something.... i think it maybe coz aof all the stress we are going through but i just need to chat to someone on the phone that knows what i am going through... not people that think they understand... ↑ |

| I dont know what post natel depression feels like, but i have had chronic recurrent depression (severe depression that goes away and comes back a couple times a year) my whole life. It's been really hard since i got married because i can't just take off school and lay in bed for two weeks. Sometimes all i can do during the day is a few dishes and make dinner. my husband DOESN'T GET IT at all. I guess it's just something that you have to go through to understand. Whenever it happens he treats me like i'm sick, and will help out for about a day. After that he just walks through the house and says "were you gonna pick that up?" "you know there is laundry in the hamper" "did you know that the cat needed food?" like i suddenly forgot how to take care of things. I also don't have a car and i walk everywhere (the payments got to be to much and it got repossessed). I don't mind the excerise, but grocery shopping and appointments are super hard for me, because i feel like a burden to friends when i need a ride. My husband would freak if he didn't have a car for a weekend, he doesn't even know how much freedom that stupid car gives him that i dont have. ↑ |
