My LO is 5 months. I think I have postpartum depression or I'm bipolar...maybe both. I don't see my T until next Tuesday and I'm hoping I can make it that long before falling apart (she is off F, S, Su). I've been doing tons and tons of reading about ppd and pp psychosis. The more I read, the more I feel like I fall into the pp psychosis category.

Some of the stories I've read, the moms were hospitalized for a few days and did not see their baby. I can't deal with not seeing her. If I come forward and spill out how bad things are for me mentally right now and they take my baby (even if that means my hubby is caring for her) I just don't think I can deal. I'm scared of mental hospitals. These two things are keeping me from coming forward about my feelings.

I tried the "ask a therapist" link but it keeps asking me to login in over and over again....must be broken.

Will they keep my baby away from me if I tell how bad things are?
