I was just diagnosed with it. Is BP illness from the incredible stress I lived with for 10 years??? I truly cannot believe I am still alive.

I have wondered the same about bipolar. Only Dx'd after PPD was mostly past- I can only semi-relate to your pain, my losses were early in pregnancy- before 12 weeks; Every month was a rollercoaster of yes it took; no it didn't; Is it any wonder that I have highs and lows now? Just turned 44 yesterday- four years ago we got pregnant for the last time, next few weeks are the hardest to get through, the loss is profound!
