hey. I had post postpartum depression and was terrified every evening at dark. I ended up going to a family practice, of general practioners. They could get me in immediately vs a p doc or T. They put me on zoloft first thing. And gave me xanax for the time being, neither which hurt the nursing baby. I still take zoloft. 5 years later. It might or might not have been postpartum depression. It took care of the symptoms and still helps. I also got my first T w/ in the week. My T wanted to keep my family intact. The goal is to get help not tare families apart.

As for the bipolar issues. That should not be a problem. People are not committed just because they are bipolar. Look at how many bipolar people have kids. There is somone else in your house hold to help watch after the child to. You are married?

Do check out the post postpartum section here. It is small but there may be xomething of use.
