i don't know what has changed this week. I'm not sure if it me finally realizing my joy in being a mother and a wife. I've been married for 2 yrs now and I'm just now starting to feel like a wife.....

I've never felt so clear headed...at least not in a long time. I'm finding joy in everything....cleaning the bathroom even! I knew I was feeling better cause last night I took a shower and went to bed nice and clean! I know that sounds like a "duh" thing but it made me feel human!

maybe it is ds sleeping in his own bed in his own room.....but I don't think so. i think, for some reason, I've suddenly found joy!

I'm certain my problem has been mild ppd (last week I even started having anxiety attacks :eek). Is it possible to just wake and feel better?

:sunshine

I think if your mood today is joy then go with it and don't dwell on the past. Make the most of today and all those cheesy sayings! :D

Have a fortune cookie! (cuz they're cheezey too but I always love them :LOL)
Really, that reminded me of when I felt lower than low going to bed, and fast forward one month later of being used to going to bed like that, I woke up and it was like the Sesame Street song "Sunny days...chasing the clouds away..."
For me I think the two big impetus for that was Sept 11th (It sort of shook me out of my stupor, of course my anxiety understandably went through the roof) and then moving to our new place 2 weeks later (when it rains it pours right?) that I fell in love with and loved everything about the new town, etc...

Just a thought, I suddenly felt like my brain cleared when my fertility was returning. I felt prettier, smarter, and just all around better(ds was 20 months old). Of course then I immediately got pregnant and had a miscarriage. So much for feeling good. Just thought I'd throw this out there.:)

My fertility returned pretty fast....I got pg at 5 months post partum and m/c at 7 weeks....... so I don't think that is it....
