    Thank you for sharing, it is very encouraging to know that there other moms that are in the same boat that I am in. The Anchor holds.

    Valerie that was a beautiful montage. It really touched my heart. I suffered from PPD after the twins were born. I thought it was just "baby blues." Thankfully, my ob diagnosed me at my six week check up.

    LOVE IT! and Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your story. I asked my DH to watch it too. About a 3rd of the way through, he started holding my hand. When it was finished, he leaned over, kissed me and said, "thank you for our children." By the time we got to your story, I was [​IMG]. God never leaves us! He is my Anchor too!

    BTW, my DH said that you have some cute kiddos [​IMG]. I second his statement!

    that was absolutely beautiful!! thank you so much for sharing that. I was diagnosed with PPD one week ago - and my girls are 8 months old!! I had been living like this for 8 months thinking it was normal and I would "get over it" soon.

    Absolutely wonderful. I have 2 friends I am currently concerned about and would like to share this with them. What an amazing way to not only share God's love, but to share it in such an real way. You are an awesome person, and may God continue to shine his light on you.

    Valerie! Thank you for sharing your story with us! I am so sad that you and others have to go through this, but I am sure there is a lesson in it and a reason.

    Very well done!

    That was very beautiful. I suffered from PPD 26 years ago, at a time when it was not openly discussed but something to be ashamed of. You are so brave to share your story and to create something that will help others as well as glorify our Lord. Thank you for sharing your story and your faith. God bless you and your precious family.

    Dear Valerie
    Thank you for sharing. I dealt w/ depression before the girls were conceived. I went off my meds during the pregnancy. PDD hit me hard after their birth even though I restarted my meds 2 days after their birth. When the girls' pedi had me fill out the mommy post partum check list I was ashamed when the pedi called and said I showed many syptoms of PPD, because now it felt like everone knew I was depressed and wasn't I suppose to be happy?!! I waited so long to be a mommy(I am 36) and I didn't feel an instant connection and an overflowing love for them and I was confused. Fast forward 8 months and things are much better. Talking about this subject is so important. Thank you for your media presentation like a pp said more people will see this and be helped. God bless. T
