My son is now 9weeks old. I never posted a birth story because I had pretty bad post partum depression-- I'm still trying to overcome it.
Do anyone know of any communities on lj with other women with ppd? It's hard to talk about it around family and friends because they just don't get that this feeling is not something I want.
Another question, for those that have given birth, how long until your stomach was back to normal? I'm still about 20-25lbs heavier than I was before getting pregnant... But it's not so much the extra weight getting me, but the way my stomach looks. The saggy skin. I can even deal with the stretch marks, but this saggy skin has really got me. Will it ever go away and be toned again? My mom said hers didn't go away... But that was after she had 5 kids. I've only had 1. And what did you do to help get back in shape?
