Postpartum as you put it is when you have feelings of depression after the baby is born. It is very serious and the doctor needs to know what's going on with you. Sometimes medication can help. Good luck

2 months and you still have post partum depression? it usually occurs right after you give birth. just accept the fact that you are having it and face the problem. ask yourself why are you being depressed? is it because you are not married? you're thinking about the future of your baby? it's but normal but you have to deal with it. talk to your boyfriend about your plans for your baby. love your baby and everything will be ok. good luck!

no. it's not that. i am very much happy about my baby and in our relationship as mother and daughter. i just heard it from a friend about the partum thing because there was a time when i was complaining about my boyfriend's immaturity. oh well, i think it's not post partum. im just having problem with him. thanks.
