Comment on Strong Start Day 2011: Postpartum Progress by Mandy Sparklepants Kirk

I too experienced PPD after the birth of my second daughter. I had been on bedrest for 3 months, after going into labor at 27 weeks, and I suspect that led to the PPD after her birth. I didn’t realize how impaired I was; our pediatrician, at a well-baby visit, clued me in by saying “Your baby is fine. You are not fine. You need help.” She referred me to a wonderful psychiatrist who turned my life around, helping me to address life-long issues and ending destructive patterns that I was determined not to perpetuate in my children’s lives. In an odd way, I am greatful for having had to face the darkness, but I paid a great price. My daughter also paid a price, in that the first three years of her life were not filled with joy and engagement and attachment… but we are getting help for her now, and in the big picture, I believe that her life will be better for having had a mother who faced and tackled her own demons.

This is absolutely gorgeous, thanks for sharing. I’d never thought of giving lots of little pieces and using it to make something.

Thanks, Kris, that is very sweet of you. I strive to be that “good-enough” Mom we learned about in psych class. Some days it works out….other days not so much. (And I think with twins you get to be double the mom I am!)

You are such a good mom. I truly aspire to be half the mom you are!
