Assalamualaikum Dr.
I have a 2 year old baby boy and i’m expecting another one in May 2009. After giving birth to my first baby i suffered post natal depression.I didn’t realise that I had it at the time, all I thought was i was feeling down. It was a suicidal depression and it was scary. Now my question is, how to avoid it. Will it happen again? How to make my husband understand that I need his support in this matter. He thinks I made it up. Please help..
Thank you.
Wa’alaikumussalam Anis Harlina, Puan tidak perlu risau lagi. Memang ramai mereka yg menjadi ibu mengalami detik cemas hendak bunuh diri sebaik selepas bersalin. Nasib baik puan tak buat macam tu. Skrg apa yg penting ialah carilah teman utk bantu anda ketika hamil kali ke2 ini. Kalau suami tak faham-faham, bawalah ia pergi berjumpa doktor dan minta doktor terangkan kat suami. Satu hari nanti ia akan faham jua masalah ibu ini. Jangan biarkan diri terus tertekan. Masuklah ke blog ini dan cakap pada kami di sini. InsyaAllah kami boleh bantu puan mengatasi masalah depression ini.
