Thank you for adding the PSA about Postpartum depression. New mother's struggles are often dismissed and most mothers feel so alone during those first few months.

Before I left hospital with my eldest, the nurses took my husband aside and told him to ensure that I was okay and not exhibiting signs of postpartum depression. They also spoke with me and told me it would be nothing to be ashamed of. At the time I was insulted but then soon realised that looking after a baby is harder than you’d believe & actually, the nurses advice helped me & my husband cope those first weeks when exhausted.

Absolutely, though I think EWU picked a bad case to be an illustrator of it. They seemed to suggest this one was related to PPD/PPP, but glossed over parts of the story they should've probed into further. We're finally learning that the constellation of symptoms previously believed to _only_ be the result of "Shaken Baby Syndrome" are not, in fact, unique to SBS. They can even be caused by birth trauma that doesn't lead to death for many weeks. However, because those symptoms are supposed to be "smoking gun" symptoms, police questioning often results in exactly the sort of answers we saw in this case. Usually starting somewhere around, "Well, he did bump his head on the changing table, and I wasn't really gentle putting him in the pack-n-play," moving toward, "I guess he could've hit his head harder than I thought," when the mother is told it was too severe to be an accident, then "Maybe I did shake him a little," after hearing these symptoms _only_ appear as the result of shaking, and ending up something like, "I must've shaken him pretty hard, twice," after being told a little shake couldn't have done this--but it was definitely, 100% caused by shaking.

Im pretty sure i had post partum psychosis. I used to genuinely believe someone was coming out our loft and harming our daughter at night. Any noise i would get up and sit in her room for hours and i would constantly go back and forth. I used to pace around constantly at night. Eventually i just snap out of it not sure if was because lock down happened and my partner was then home all the time or if it was went i got pregnant as they both happened around the same time

I developed post Partum Psychosis with both of my kids. I only got through it and got better because I had help and support from others around me. It's a shame we treat it as a taboo subject. If you're a mother and you feel like something is wrong or you're not coping well, DO NOT BE ASHAMED OR EMBARRASSED to ask for help! There is nothing wrong with needing help and if you don't feel like you're being listened to, keep trying until you find someone who will listen to you before it's too late...

He gave a startled reaction than bawled. Immediately I was hit with guilt and picked him up and just apologized repeatedly. My mom, now ex husband and other family members helped me through that time. It's ok to feel the way we do but it's important to reach out to anyone who can help. Please ask for help it's not your fault but it's not your babies fault either. I was mentally, emotionally and verbally abused growing up and I ended that cycle.

I wasn’t diagnosed with it right away by my OB because the signs weren’t there until after a few days. A mom needs to have a support system in place before giving birth to ensure that her baby is safe, and so is she. The baby isn’t the only victim. Hormone imbalances are nothing to ignore after birth, and all moms should be tested for this imbalance after childbirth. I truly believe that if these steps were in place, there would be less early child abuse.

Thankfully, most of us stop short of hurting our children or anyone else, no matter how angry you are.

I do think many parents experience this, I know many I have spoken to do/did. That doesn't mean we would actually hurt our children! The step for feeling rage to action is one most of us don't cross.

Post Partum Depression and lack of sleep can very much make a very loving, caring, and patient mother have an instantaneous violent episode. Other countries provide after birth care for mothers for several months because it is so taxing and hard on us. But the USA is just like, "Welp, there ya go. Good luck." Birth takes a toll on our bodies and our minds. We don't get enough support after giving birth. 2 days in the hospital is nothing, and we are often woken up every 45 mins for some random testing instead of just letting us get the sleep we need. Nobody wants to help after the birth, but they are more than willing to lock us up when we can't get the help or support we need.

I couldn’t eat, if I did eat I would either puke or If I could keep it down I would have diarrhoea couldn’t sleep, high heart rate and sweats, didn’t want to hang out with no one , had no desire to do anything that I liked …This guy nailed it right on the money with the symptoms. I tried very hard to raise My child, she was about 18 months when I had to make that hard decision to send her away and be safe. The hardest , and I mean the hardest thing to do is to admit you need help . It was very hard I cried for months afterwards, I felt like a total let down , worthless . Better off dead, I tried twice to hang my self while she was in my care. That was 4 years ago . She’s now 5 years old , and the life her grandmother and father are giving her , is more then I could ever imagen someone would do to make the situation on ur mental health and safety of both is just amazing and a blessing . I miss my child , there is not a moment or a day that goes by that I don’t think of her and I honestly get teary eyed and still at times I feel like a failure. I have been on Zoloft 150 for 4 years and I am also on Ativan , because the panic attacks are still very much there . I go see my daughter as often as I can . And I’m very great full for how my daughters life is turning out for her . I also am someone who got abused (from the earliest age of 6 that I can remember, till I was 16, when he finally passed. Daily basis ) and that really honestly plays a part in postpartum depression. Ptsd , anxiety, depression, any mental health issue really..Even with pills and counselor, psychiatrist and random things to attend where women have the same problem .. but in the end . It’s still very much there, it still very much rips my heart out .If u feel it..ask for help ! That doesn’t make anyone a bad mother . It’s not a fun thing to endure, and I was told to not have another kid because it could possibly get worse .. the child’s life and ur life is worth seeking that help .. you must bear down and tell the hurtful and harmful things u r thinking . The truth is better then taking a life . And you don’t know if u r gonna Wind up in those like her . The dark thoughts are horrible. And it’s not worth pushing urself to that point of try harder , just try harder . U end up emotionally physically and mentally drained and with sleep deprivation on top . It’s the perfect recipe for disaster.. don’t be afraid to ask for help , for someone to take on ur child. If u make that effort to see the child and be around as often as You can , and make sure u tell them u love them every single time u see them . Cuz in the end that’s still ur child , you and I shall always be available when you can finally have that healthy thinking you will thank yourself for seeking that help..

Theres two who feed off each other . baby’s and tots pick up on ur mental break downs . And that can cause them to be even more fussy then normal . And there’s no way I was letting her see her mothers mental health step in the way of life . Wasn’t happening . If you need help today! Don’t wait ! Please go get it ! As much as u don’t want to let go, sometimes that’s the healthiest thing for everyone . Doesn’t mean ur not gonna be around , just means ur fixing urself . And u recognized what’s up !

Good for you not being selfish and keeping her knowing her father could give her more! My father raised me from 6 alone... he's not here anymore but I'm super close to my mom even tho she didn't have a hand in raising me persay.. I saw her on weekends and she came to my school stuff but he was my care giver! I'm so grateful my mom allowed my father to take me and raise me... I love and respect her and have told her how grateful I am that she wasn't selfish and kept me just to.. your daughter will feel the same way one day if not already... my nephew is being raised by his father and grandparents cuz my sister has some mental health issues.. I believe it's postpartum but they say no cuz my nephew's 3.. I feel it's been untreated so it's lingering.. her meds haven't helped a bit! She's gained way to much weight from the meds.. I pray all the time she will tell them her treatment plan isn't working... I believe some anti depressants and some anxiety Meds would do her justice!!! Keep on pushing!!!!! Look for the sunshine after the rain!

You're doing so well. You had the hardest decision to make and you made the right one. I wish I had a mother like you.

Well, it's been 25 yrs and my children are adults now. I was 18 when I git pregnant the 1st time. I was fresh out of foster care, had been a victim of abuse when I was a child, got pregnant after I got released from the system and the 'father' disappeared. I gave birth to a girl. My baby had colic for about 4 months. I thought I would lose my mind. I cried everytime she cried. I was exhausted, frustrated, irritated....and I did my very best. Sometimes, I put her in her bouncer seat and put it on top of the dryer while it was on, it helped. She slept in a bassinet beside me, and she was constantly fidgeting, never sleeping, always whining and it drove me nuts, and I had no support whatsoever. Sometimes, I rocked her bassinet pretty hard, sometimes I screamed, sometimes I plopped her down on the couch pretty hard, sometimes I left her crying in a play pen and turned music up loud....sometimes I shook her. It wasn't a violent shake because I knew it could hurt her, but enough to be wrong. I was young, inexperienced, unhealed from my own traumas, a brand new clueless single mother, and not a Soul to lean on for help in any capacity. My daughter survived, I survived, but not without pain about some things I wish I'd done differently. We can only really only function at the capacity of our own consciousness at any given time though, and I certainly never intended harm. The moral of my story is, if you know a single parent, live next to one, work with one, are friends with one.....please don't underestimate your capacity to help. They need someone to care, be unconditional in their words, offer support and help them, be like family they might not have otherwise. Even bringing a meal over can make such a difference and impact. Offer a hand and heart, and please understand how very challenging it is for them. Even filling up their gas tank once a month can bring profound relief. Anyway, this is a tragic story all the way around, so don't judge what you don't know and focus on knowing this happens more frequently than it should. 🕉

I truely don't understand how having a child was a good idea with your age and past experiences (traumas), during a failing and unstable relationship. You got pregnant almost directly after you were released from foster care? Or were you released from foster care because you got pregnant? And that is why most people don't reach out or help. You cannot help a person who is this hellbend on making the most awful personal decisions in life. Cannot help a person away from the abyss they are so desperate to throw themselves in. And if just for yourself, all fine and dandy, but you are not the only victim of your awful choices, and that I cannot forgive, or ignore.

PPD is really really intense. Having struggled here and there with depression my whole life, I felt I could handle it. But I was wrong. I wrote a message to my doctor saying I was having thoughts of harming my baby because he wasn’t sleeping and always screaming and crying, and I wasn’t sleeping more than 2 hours here and there. Thankfully we got something worked out with my family having him some of the time so that I could sleep. It was so hard to admit how I was feeling, because I didn’t want them to take my baby away from me. I loved him (still do) so somuch, but my thoughts were scaring me. I didn’t know where they came from and I didn’t want to have them. I didn’t know what to do. So I contacted my doctor. It was a rough time those first 3 months. They say put the baby down and leave the room or house to have a break from incessant screaming and crying, but It was going on for 4 hours. After about 10 minutes I would feel guilty and I would go to him.

The case of Sydney happened close to where I live and was a big story locally, coming from a small and quiet town. Saying he broke down and confessed feels too humanizing. Quake was a part of the local searches for her and “broke down” and confessed when the search crew came close to her burial site (on his family property I believe) and knew the jig was up, but even then he kept up some of the charades. His original story was that he accidentally ran her over and killed her, panicked and buried her. Came out that he definitely backed over her after she had already been run over once, and he had SA’d her whether alive or not. He is definitely missing something upstairs, but that doesn’t discount at all what he did to that poor chick.

@Anita K I wholeheartedly agree. Not everyone has the temperament or coping skills to deal with infants or young children and a lot of that has to do with our own upbringing. I think it is much easier when they're older and can communicate with you instead of having meltdowns. It took a _tremendous_ amount of restraint not to lose my temper with my niece when she was an infant. I didn't want to be her caregiver but I was kind of stuck doing it because my older Sister worked as many hours as she could to avoid taking care of her newborn. I resented that. Although I didn't want children anyway, I definitely didn't after she was born. The incestant crying almost drove me insane. To make matter's worse, my niece *refused* to eat baby food. I had absolutely no imagination or creativity or patience and I was perplexed by this standoff with a baby. I just thought: This is Baby food, You're a baby, eat this sh*t! While she glared at me. I was so utterly frustrated and annoyed by her stubbornness and my feelings of inadequacy that I would cry. Finally my Mother started making her baby food; boiling potatoes and making her mashed potatoes (with seasoning of course) ECT. and she ate that. She still cried all the time though. I was the youngest person in my family at 26 when she was born so she was the first baby that I had ever held. When I was really angry and looked at her beautiful face my heart just melted and my anger dissipated. It was a very scary experience though and I didn't trust myself. Not everyone is cut out for parenthood. Fortunately the fear and temptation of losing your temper causes some of us enough introspection to realize that in advance. .

It's hard to overstate just how intensely the Jill Meagher case shocked and horrified the nation, especially in Melbourne where it happened. I remember those 6 days she was missing seeming to stretch forever. The government made serious changes to the law and the policies around who gets parole and what conditions they are under.

The best parenting advice i was ever given was “a baby wont die from crying too hard, If you need a breather you need to take one”. Obviously keep your eye on the kid still, don’t leave them alone, but if theyre screaming in their crib, step aside, take a breath, relax. Its for the sake of both of you.

I remember being so invested in the search for Jill. It was so extremely sad when they found her body.

A few months after I had my daughter, I told my family I was going to the doctor for antidepressants. My grandmother questioned it due to me breast feeding. I told them all, “this isn’t a choice. This is a must”. I never understood how someone could shake their baby like that….until one very sleep deprived, constant crying night….I understood completely how that could happen and it terrified me.

I had extreme post partum depression and I told my husband that I didn’t feel like hurting my baby but I feel NOT RIGHT n I need u to stay home n let me work n he did until I got better ❤️ people have got to swallow pride n ask for help when needed

I have experienced PPD with my Best friend! That’s shit scared the living shit out me, They can’t help it. But she Felt only disdain and anger towards her Son! She didn’t want him and blamed him for all what was wrong! Luckily the nurses and me alongside close relatives, so she was immediately admitted to the psychiatric hospital! She was treated for about 2 weeks, her son came 2 days later! She needed a lot of support but she overcame it with the support from us and the Hospital. She is the best mom in the world, she still has trouble accepting that it wasn’t her fault!

I never experienced PPD but I've struggled with severe depression. Never once has harming my children ever occurred to me. Even when my 10 year old was a newborn and was extremely colicky, I would lay her down or put her in her swing and walk outside when it got to be to much for me. I would take a few min to get myself together and then go back inside and get her settled down. I never wanted to be so upset or angry that hurting my girls ever even became a thought. ⁰

I think people misidentified her as a protective mother. She was NOT protective of Dylan, She was protecting her secret of being a child abuser... She didn't want people to get close to Dylan because somebody may spot that something was wrong with him.

My moms friend was suffering from postpartum depression a few months back and she ended up posting a suicide note on Facebook for us all to see, and shot herself in the head. Her mom and several other people after seeing the FB post, rushed over to her house but unfortunately it was too late and they found her in her bedroom. I’ll never forget that feeling in my stomach when I first read it. It’s shocking and almost hard to believe and I was holding out so much hope her mom would reach her in time smfh. That postpartum depression is not a joke, and if you feel yourself suffering from it please get help. Even my mom has told me of all the uncharacteristic, and intrusive thoughts that can come with it. I will never have a child for this reason. I already suffer from depression as is 💀Couldn’t imagine my mental state after having a baby. Wouldn’t be good for either one of us tbh.

I'm thankful my postpartum depression wasn't as bad as this. I love my son so much, but my depression made me think I was an awful mom. I felt like I wasn't doing enough for my son. But never once did I get frustrated with him or think of harming him in any way. I felt like a failure of a mother. I was living with my parents at the time while my fiance was trying to get us into an apartment, so I was very thankful for the help.

@@HealingHappyAli I have been blessed by God and pain is only a sign that I am alive, it lets me know what I need God's help with and weakness is leaving my body. My pain is what brought me to God and my pain is my gain. It is my sorrows, weakness, my WILL and my unconditional love for God's creations that gives compassion to my enemies and my urges to teach Jesus's message. Give no acknowledgment to no man woman our book for none of these things can bring you the word of God but he, Himself. Pray to Him and seek enlightenment and understanding of all He created. Ask for the strength and power to create His will, to beckon His call, to bestow His WILL in your hands. I was given my man 18 years to live. God gave me everything that I asked for. Nobody to inflict pain on me, nobody to scare me, nobody to worry me, nobody to harm me or anybody I I love, the strength and power to wield HIS WILL, the Knowledge to keep me alive, the knowledge to keep those around me alive, the power to rebuke and to understand everything HE created so that I too so I can see clear. I asked HIM to let me feel my pain so that I can fix myself. I am 52 now. Many people has doubt my life experiences but I doubt there life experiences because there is no right without righteousness. May God bless you with my WILL

My health teacher in high school told us "Remember, there's nothing wrong with taking a few minutes to walk away and breathe. The baby will still be there when you calm down." I think about that every time a shaken baby case comes up.

😂 “…her lies were a big red flag that she was not being honest with detectives…”

It’s always sad when a person has been abused but when it’s an infant/ toddler/ child it’s beyond heartbreaking. The pain, unbearable pain 😔💔 If anyone is watching this and feels overwhelmed with parenthood Please know there’s help. No one will judge you for needing help. TBH people will be grateful. your baby depends on you to keep them safe and healthy. It doesn’t make you bad parent to reach out for help. God Bless

I don’t feel angry at the mother, more than anything I feel bad for her, everyone has been there at least once. I’ve been diagnosed with PPD myself. More than once I’ve handed my daughter (she’s four months) to my partner because her crying was stressing me out and getting to me so much that I’m fearful I will hurt her if my partner doesn’t take her.

I've noticed shaken baby syndrome seems to prevalent among young, immature mothers. It's such a shame that your parents and society teach you your whole life to use protection or abstain because being a parent is hard and basically the end of your independent life but it never seems to land.

22:14 Hey ladies, if you'd like to avoid getting murdered, consider not taking the same route whenever you jog! Or even better, never leave your home at all! Sit in your living room with the blinds closed, and turn on the sprinklers if someone gets within 3 feet of your house. /j

Help young mothers. Always open the door when they are struggling with a stroller. Always congratulate them. Always tell them the baby is beautiful. You have no idea how much that kind of encouragement helps. I am amazed at how few people do this!

I suffered from PPD twice with 2 of my 4 babies. I sought help and was put on medication and had help and support. Never once thought about harming my babies , although I did feel like harming myself. Please, ladies, if you have any thoughts of harming your baby or yourself after giving birth, Get help right away!! There is treatment and hope!

Now imagine all of the poor babies who will be born into this world by moms who would have otherwise gotten abortions. I don’t want to get political here, but sadly I foresee a huge spike in tragic stories like this to come, now that Roe vs Wade will be overturned in many states. In a perfect world, everyone would have safe sex and accidental pregnancies wouldn’t occur… in a perfect world, women wouldn’t get raped and/or become victims of incest… and there wouldn’t be women who are victims of sex trafficking which can result in unwanted pregnancies. Don’t forget all of the women who get pregnant at extremely young ages, who haven’t even finished high school yet and clearly aren’t prepared for motherhood…or women with severe mental illness who become pregnant and are incapable of being responsible, loving mothers..So many different scenarios.. what about instances where you find out that your baby has seriously debilitating physical ailments and a woman does not want to bring a baby into this world only to suffer and live in pain. Sorry, these stories just evoke a lot of fear for the future of our country, with the recent ruling and all.

So its better to murder a baby?

I have 4 kids. My youngest is only 4 months old. Whenever I'm home alone with a baby and I'm frustrated with them, I put them in a crib or bassinet and go into a different room to calm down for a few minutes. Maybe drink water, wash my face, have a quick snack, something to change my mood, BEFORE i pick up the baby again. Do NOT keep holding your baby if you're frustrated with them. Put them somewhere safe and go somewhere else to calm yourself down!!!

Fire station. Police station. Hospital. ALL will take a baby no questions asked.

It takes a special kind of stupid for someone to incriminate themself over a prison phone call, considering they make it VERY clear that every single call is monitored and/or recorded.

I had postpartum depression after my son's birth. I woke up and went to bed every day feeling like I was a horrible mother and my kids were better off without me. Slowly I came out of that way of thinking and when my son was about 3 months old, I didn't have anymore thoughts like I had previously. That was 10 years ago, and I still have never had those thoughts. Postpartum depression is a serious issue.

I recently began work at a hospital for people who have schizophrenia and personality disorders and realise there must be so many people living undiagnosed and untreated in the community, which is scary. The delusions and halucinations are so real to them and sometimes cause them to feel threatened or angry or afraid of things or people, causing them to react in unpredictable and sometimes violent ways. I bet many crimes are committed by people suffering from untreated mental health illness and could be avoided if they had got help sooner. Truly evil people are also common though and cannot be treated, they are also manipulative and are the most terrifying of all!

See the problem with the first story, when they say she was neglected and abused and that was the reason she killed her baby is bs.
