[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 344871, member: 1157"] With Oldest, I was miserable. I don't know about clinically depressed, as in, can't pull myself out of bed, don't care about anything depressed, but I was in a horrible marriage and we fought constantly. I cried a LOT. When she was a baby she was SO colicky and difficult... which of course was the beginning of her being a difficult child, period. I've always thought our fighting and the stress I was under, contributed to that. With Youngest, the pregnancy was planned and I don't remember being depressed, until the end. I was in a bad car accident at 33 weeks and broke my knee, delivered her 5 weeks early while in a full leg cast. Talk about post-partum depression. I somehow pulled myself out of it, without psychiatric help. But, since my "state of mind" during most of the pregnancy was fairly even-keeled, I don't think it affected her as much. In fact, I think many of her issues come from being the younger sibling to Oldest. [/QUOTE]
