I have tried various antidepressants for a few years, and Prozac/fluoxetine seems to work for me. I'm not depressed, but I can't handle stress, and my mood swings were taking a toll on our marriage. I continued throughout pregnancy (tried to stop early on, but couldn't handle it) and since my daughter's birth. Things have been busier & a little more stressful since she was born, and I thought I'd been dealing with it, but the last couple weeks have felt like I am not taking any medication. My question is: is this the baby blued/PPD -- but why would it start after 4-5 months? Or is the additional stress of parenthood making my old dosage not quite enough? I am going to call my dr. today to see if she'll increase my dosage or what she'll say. Thanks in advance.

I have a 5 year old and a 3 month old and just recently have noticed I have been getting depressed and my mood swings can get out of control. I think its more the first few months are easy and now that the baby is active more and you have less time to do things that you need to do.. LIke rest, do laundry and ex. I have realized that laundry and everything else can wait and if you feel like you cant handle the mood swing then go to ur doc.. But i def feel what your going thru...GL
