>Yep, you got it right.
The tummy, drugged feeling, and agitation, *should* diminish within a week or 2.
Try to eat something before you take the pill. If you are not used to taking meds
this might account for the drugged feeling -- it will pass.I'm glad your baby is in tune with you. It sounds like you have a good strong bond,
depression or not. Congratulate yourself for that. I'm also really glad to hear that hubby
is supportive but please remember your priorities right now -- YOU!
Can you find some social supports for yourself too?? The med will help with most of the
problem but adjusting to motherhood is difficult and disorienting to say the least.I think my question at this point, aside from "why is the baby crying AGAIN", was "where
the he$$ am I in all this?"That's where the other moms were so helpful, since they were struggling too -- even tho
some had to prompted to admit it.Let us know how it's going please?
Best,
Liz
