Thanks for posting …
Thanks for posting this. It makes a lot of sense. As someone with Celiac Disease, I can see how this all ties in together (high stress, malnutrition due to contaminated diet, and how it affects mom/baby)… It also makes sense why something like this would run all the way to the 3rd trimester if not sorted out properly in the 1st and 2nd.

I’ve been wondering why I threw up so much more than everyone else I knew that has gone through a pregnancy… I threw up multiple times a day, every day, for the entire first trimester. I was experiencing stress before I became pregnant, quite intense stress. This all makes much more sense.

I had severe postpartum after my daughter was born. I am now in the mist of getting full custody of my daughter after 3 years of her birth. I am having a hard time explaining to the courts about my depression. I miss my baby so much and i hope to have her soon.
My ex husband has her and is saying all the bad things i caused and that i am a bad person when i am not. He caused me so much stress during and after my pregnancy. Do you have any advice for me please?

Right. No matter how stressed or depressed you are, you have a choice…get help, or hurt your little one…thats a choice some unfortunatly make. Its not excusable.

the reason for that decifiency is that HIStory has all been from the perspective of men… women’s focus in contemporary society is as a response to this. The mainstream is male to begin with.

Men’s health clubs were closed after AIDS hit the spotlight in the early eighties.

I am still looking for the college course “men’s issues” – haven’t found it yet. Of course, neither is there a “men’s hospital” or a local “for guys only” health club! I think women would sue us for such things!!!!

My grandfather used to raise minks, and there was a problem with them eating their young. Is it possible that those mothers, being cramped in cages, eat their babies because of this depression? Also, do mother rabbits and other animals sometimes eat or abuse their babies due to post partum depression?

Common sense. Thank you.
I don’t care how stressed you are, it’s no excuse for murdering your children.

I have actually studied stress for decades. “Stress is always a choice” refers to things like having anxiety while in traffic, getting mad at someone’s behavior, nervous before a school exam, etc. That is a matter of choice, though most folks don’t want to take responsibility for their behavior. If someone forces your hand into a workbench vice grip, that stress is not a choice! Thank you for the reply.

“stress is always a choice” … umm, do you understand what biological stress is? apparently not.

Actually, we choose how to interpret and handle our experiences. Stress is always a choice. I know we are in the era of “nothing is my fault” so this is not a popular view. A great example is heavy traffic – some people stress out with it, and some people enjoy slowing down for a change – their choice!

I was very stressed during my last pregnancy, and my baby ended up having a lot of health problems while she was still inside me and after she was born.

My suggestions… Find people you can talk about your problems to, find people the father can talk about his problems to, ideally including people who have been there, and keep in touch with your friends.

I agree with this. Not everybody inflicts stress upon themselves, and there are appropriate times for mourning. Having a baby IS a stressful event for normal people, who have to figure out how to afford a child.
Also, I feel that much of post-partum depression has to do with a complete change in lifestyle, not being able to leave the house, and constant bombardment by relatives. Imo, these social factors are equally important to the physiological factors.

“her own lifestyle choice has helped to create” asshole!!! not all stress is created by choice. Sudden death of a parent or spouse and struggling with poverty is not a choice. Many other factors besides choice contribute to stress of a pregnant mom.
