Postpartum Support International offers a free phone-in counseling and support service each Wednesday for mothers who are having a difficult time postpartum. By calling the 1-800 support line, you can ask questions of professionals who will be sympathetic to your feelings and who are knowledgeable enough to help you make sense of them, or to just talk about what's bothering you. Here is a quote from their website:
----------------
"This is a place where Moms, family members, support people for moms, or professionals can find some answers. This is a place where you can find honest and compassionate talk about the adjustment to motherhood or mood changes during or after pregnancy.
Participation can be anonymous. There is no need to register, the sessions are live and free, and the facilitators are licensed mental health professionals.
Please join us."
----------------
If you are having a difficult time postpartum, please give them a call. It's free and about as nonjudgmental as you can get. The more you understand about what you are going through the quicker you can get back to enjoying motherhood and spending time with your baby.
