But what are you gaining from going to a doctor if you've already established that your PPD is on the lower end of the spectrum? I had my second within weeks of her giving birth to her little boy and I definitely suffered from PPD. I didn't need a doctor to tell me as it was very clear to me and my family. Saying that, I didn't have an urge to hurt myself or my baby so I didn't feel like I needed to go to the doctor but said numerous times to family that if my feelings or thoughts changed, I would book an appointment. Most people who suffer from any form of depression usually know it before they speak to a doctor. I'd never suffered with any mental health issues prior to having my second but it was clear as day to me that I had PPD. I'm luckily past those feelings now but when I speak about it, I say I struggled with PPD. I may not have been suicidal but I cried most days for 6 months, not a little whimper, actual screaming crying, hated getting up in the morning, I was extremely miserable and angry all the time, the rage was unreal and I questioned if I was cut out to be a mother of two because of how I was feeling, I didn't look forward to anything (vacations..birthdays) there is no question in my mind what I suffered with so again, I'm not sure why because you had to go to a doctor, why anyone else should be judged because they didn't?
In addition to this… there is no conclusive test that a doctor can do that says for certain you have PPD, or any kind of depression for that matter, it’s all based on what your symptoms are, therefore technically you can be diagnosed with PPD but actually not even have it. So going to the doctor if you don’t wish to be medicated or take any professional action is pretty much pointless.

Technically there is…here in the UK midwives and health visitors use the Edinburgh postnatal scale…I myself scored high in it but I’ve been diagnosed prior to pregnancy with CPTSD

agreed. Along with clinical judgment it’s an effective screening tool commonly used for postpartum Mums in the UK & Ireland.

Yes the scale is great and can help medical professionals determine those that are most at risk. But before you even have those questions asked, most women will already know something is not right at the very least. We're all clued up in this day in age regarding PPD as it's much more spoken about now days. My point is still stands that you don't NEED a gp/midwife/HV to diagnose you but its obviously absolutely needed for those that require medical help.

Again though that’s not a DEFINITIVE test, like says biopsy or blood test. i am not disputing your personal diagnosis at all, and I can’t imagine how horrendous that is, but I still think you don’t need a diagnosis to confirm you have it. And that it’s possible to be diagnosed with PPD without actually having it.

I wasn’t disputing that you did need a test to be diagnosed…I was simply just adding in that there is a test available. I agree that you as person know automatically when something is up. An example would be…plenty of people
go undiagnosed for years with things such as BPD or schizophrenia and have to fight with GPS and mental health services to get a diagnosis.

She really is a try hard, l like her honest parenting, but she does go over the top with things, she had a rant the other day about various subjects and while they need a platform its almost a selling point for her to be controversial.
I'm still not over her telling the Internet her and her husband are just roommates at the moment. Wonder what his mates at work think.

She says it quite regular. Its odd. She is really try hard. She’d say she isn’t but she most definitely is. Just a couple months ago they were too poor to try for a 3rd baby. Now they are trying again soon? Which one is it. Also, why would you want another baby when you’re still in a roommate phase? You don’t have kids to make your marriage.

When she first said it I thought it was really refreshing that it was being acknowledged and nice to hear other parents go through it.
But now it almost feels like she’s putting down her husband when she says it. I used to love her content but now feel that everything she does comes across so smug. She doesn’t seem to particularly like being a mum but at the same time is obsessed with having another baby.

And she was spending money on Botox and fillers. Not at all advised when you’re trying to get pregnant as there is no data on their how they affect a pregnancy

it’s the constant pivoting from being roomies with her husband and being so public about it or dying for a third baby and ovulation kits and supplements etc. it’s so hard to follow.

I was a huge fan and have followed for a while but it's just brag and spend these days. And "I'm in my.... era". Apparently girlfriend is in her dinner party era but has to go purchase everything to host, OK... and the blatant matter of fact statements e.g "if your husband doesn't want to have another baby with you you need to leave". No, it's a mutual decision and discussion. Then she proceeds to say if she wants a baby then she'll have a baby, where's the partnership in that? And the cabin trip was all about making memories blah blah blah. No, it was about you getting TT and IG content and the memories were all staged. She brought the bikini for those specific photos, it wasn't a spur of the moment thing. Yeah I've had enough.

I agree I've followed her for ages and there's definitely been a shift. Also not sure why she sometimes acts like they don't have money. They are clearly very wealthy. There are people out there who can't afford the food shop.

obviously a nice thing to share to get more donations in for that poor father but cannot see Caroline’s name anywhere in the donation list, can’t imagine she’d do it anon.

Agree with everything you guys have said.
She wouldn't have a party or buy her kid a present because he won't remember but f*cks of to a cabin miles away...that guess what, he won't remember! Why couldn't she just have to inlaws down for a cake and some party games for the kids.

That cabin was all for show, for her to create content, to make money off #aff links and as said above the bikini and hat were thought, bought and packed for one reason, she isn't that mad British girl she is just copying others who have done it before.

It's no ones business what they spend but Caroline makes it everyone's business by telling people they earn x amount and that they are so poor they can't have another baby, they just couldn't afford another or the formula, then proceeds to have her hair and nails done continuously, botox, filler, make up, meals out, a cleaner, new bathroom and now trying for a baby.
The shopping today because she is hosting was just vulgar, anthro isn't cheap! Like go to target and buy glass's and napkins.

She wanted that house and it was going to be amazing, she has done very little, not sure she is interested. The home staging business doesn't seem to do much or she forgets to update the page as nothing new has happened.
The roommate thing kills me, she says it in front of him and he just takes it. Some things are private not for TT, chat with your girlfriends or your sister or bestie but not strangers. He goes into work everyday and everyone he works with knows he's in a dry spell, men are too macho for that tit.
