The Baby Blues, You Have Lived? How Long Did It Last? What Triggered It?
Friday, July 23rd, 2010Several questions in one. I was wondering if you had the baby blues "shortly after childbirth. I am not talking about depression or other. I just want to talk a big pain just after the birth of your baby that has been caused by something special. I was three days after birth, when I was told that my baby had lost 800 grams (even if it was a mistake to scale) and need to think about getting a bottle, I had not made the breasts for breastfeeding (you talk, that's 14 months I breastfeed, one just tell me yet, "I broke his mouth: op). I do not know why I thought of my mother who then died several years ago and I felt so terribly alone. I cried all day, every word made me cry like a madeleine. I think it was triggered by the pressure they put me after the birth. I wonder if we can avoid it.
This is due to the drop in hormones!
I also had this little depressed hormone in the first week of life of my children. I still remember sitting on the floor in the process of folding diapers and I had a sudden urge to cry, but scream like that for nothing. No trigger, no problems that could cause this reaction. I knew it was a possibility the baby blues, I bawled my fill and I switched to something else. Strange that reaction is not it?
The baby blues is more or less clearly known. The hormonal factor is also involved in a hand trigger, fatigue, emptiness in her body. We always say that after birth we saw his own birth so it's normal that you think of your mother at this time. It must be three months on average for it to pass if it persists you should consult there may be a lack in the body (iron etc. …) to control.
Honestly, I do not know if what I have is a baby blues. On returning home, I started to cry, I wanted everything to be perfect and darling had made efforts but the house was not like I wanted: not the laundry folded, and a huge blanket (gift of beautiful mom ) loose on the armchair in the lounge. Then I knew what to do, the only advantage of living in maternity is that everything is nearby, at home it took me to rapproprie space. During 3 / 4 days I have had episodes of tears in the evening and also the first night when she woke up to eat. I think it was as much due to fatigue.
No I do not think we can not "… To avoid the hormone … I got it fairly quickly from the clinic, every night when my husband left me to 20h was a tear and I cried like a madeleine, the poor helpless every time … it was a hard 24/48h once back at home And every time I had a right to question "Darling that is there? It will not? "And it happened as quickly as it came.
For me not really baby blues but something big stress when I found a prolapse (cervix low, right over the vulva) 15 days after delivery. Berk, I suddenly felt very old and very damaged. It took me 3-4 days. So completely egocentric blues by cons as I expanded the relationship with my baby, I do not feel outdated, I felt well-doing, especially as I do felt.
As MarieCat, I do not know if it was the baby blues or not … morning because it was going really better. It was evening at the second part. I had many visits the day (but I like to be alone so I was delighted), between feedings that have happened from the start to wonder, my son slept almost all day no worries … And then came the evening around 18h-19h … Night was falling back in December, everyone was leaving, the day shift was replaced by the night shift but apart from the cries of the bb in the hallways all calmed down … … Except my son who began to cry … and it lasted all night until morning like 5am … beh and I can tell you that enclosed between four walls the night with a baby who is just screaming is super long! Direct, I'm worried to find myself alone with my bb, I remember having the reaction of a kid when my baby came home, I collapsed in tears on her "I laaaiiiisssse paassssss ouiiiinnnn" … … I do not know what to do. I do not know what to do pourqu'il be zen … In fact I felt that my bb already knew me very well, he asked me something to relieve me and I do not understand at all … I think it was due to my inexperience, the fact of not really knowing what to do? (Leave crying, put in the night, put it up against me but I was afraid of crashing, it chokes … with regurgitations short I took the lead … I was wrecked and the screams did not help …) … I heard weeping in the next room I remember I was going to kick him two fingers "Hey, I'm your neighbor … do you mind if we all feel great galley there alone?" Brief upon reflection, I think I really put the pressure alone … I understand now that the stay in maternity is completely different from home, and you really have to go by feel, maximum response to the needs of bb …. bb keep everything against us, put it in at will (I. bb keep all against one, put it in at will (moiqui am a real breadboard and despite my caesarean, two days after I had the breasts of Samantha Fox), no it does not choke, I did not 'crush not sleeping … but well maybe I could sleep at night without a cable peter!
Hou siiiiii that! Hard drive when I think … What triggered it: "Madam you the impression, we'll just take stock of their skills, see if everything goes well and if it has no consequences "because it is premature in my head …. it was like a electric shock" because it's something that can not go? "" I know it when you very concon but now think that I became the mother took her daughter for fear … And then my mom like you to thousands of kilometers, the ticket was only for one month half after birth provided Alyssa … I was alone and lonely, zom he does understand me and I confess that I myself could not understand myself. But when I said "hopefully" ouffff "but" ha: heart problem: followed mandatory, more fear than harm, it is always followed next appointment is next year and will be notified until I avoid thinking about it. By my lovely!
Ha la la … the baby blues I think few recovers … Listen … Live the hormones I'd say that by four months, yet I grew not yet laid. By the pregnancy cons' blues I know it must be like .. Suddenly, for something that normally stressful to do a little, I blubber like a madeleine … My husband thinks every time the disaster … fatigue, hormones, stress, and is the pffiuuu cata …
Me, I do not think I had the baby blues due to the drop in hormones. Immediately after birth, I was on my little cloud. Then, fatigue took over. My big blow depressed, I had one month to Junior, when breastfeeding has begun fucked (candidiasis).
Oh yes, the baby blues have I got it. I managed not to breastfeed my daughter, and how the medical team made me feel … I felt like the worst mother … My companion did not surrender yet well aware of fatigue related to the baby (he quickly realized the house) and therefore not helping me not like I wanted. Besides my father died when I was four months pregnant was not there to see my chip and it is in those moments where we know that a particular person should be where the absence becomes hard to manage. I was thinking about her last words "If I'm doing and I am blessed to be able to take your child in my arms I'd be the happiest of men …" So I cry to cry all the tears from my body but after that was better.
Oh yes, I also know: fatigue, stress, my breast has gone wrong, a fight with my parents (they have chosen their moment well huh) I did make one beautiful. I hope one thing, that my neighbor is a little less important because I really feel that my stay in the mat was ruined by that damn baby blues.
