At first i thought it was the drugs :wink or that my mom was in town for 2 weeks but I have NO hint of the baby blues.

I had ppd with my son (undx-ed) till he was almost 1. I didn't even realize it was ppd till it was over :rolleyes:

Anyway, I fully expected bb or ppd again this time but I haven't had a hint. I've had a couple crying spells but nothing major. I just feel good!

Is it safe to assume that that the ppd fairy passed me by this time??

I would still be onm the look out. It can sneek up any time for up to two years after the birth and still be considered PPD.

That said it isn't at all uncommon for you to have it with ne child and not your next. I had horrible PPD complicated by a traumatic birth experiance and NICU stay with dd (who wouldn't be depressed) and was just fine with #2 and then had it the worst with #3 which was odd because with her everything was perfect.

My PPD started at the 10 week mark after both births.

I am glad you are feeling well though, megan!

So far so good :D

I'm thinking I may end up with td...toddler depression! Man, toddlerhood is hard!
