Postpartum depression?

Kristina

I'm a FTM and my LO is 6 weeks 4 days old. He has really bad colic to the point where he will sometimes cry uncontrollably for 8 hours straight. He wakes up every 2-3 hours at night and his gas pains are so bad it sometimes takes hours to get him back to sleep.

I've recently hit my breaking point where I don't know how much more I can take. I don't want to harm him or myself but we're going on 7 weeks straight of this and I've broken down crying twice this week.. I'm also unable to go out because he ends up screaming the entire time.

Do you think this is PPD or something else? Any advice or words of encouragement are appreciated.
