Second baby / PPD

Raelynn • Raelynn

Did anyone have ppd with their first but not their second?

Our daughter Juniper is 3 weeks old now and I don't feel like I have ppd this time around (thank goodness!!) I want to hold her and snuggle her all the time and thinking about Finlay when he was born makes me sad and feel guilty because I didn't feel much "connection"- for lack of a better word, until he was like 8 weeks old and smiled and giggled for the first time. I had an overwhelming wave of "ohhhhh THIS is how I should feel!"

Did anyone else have a similar situation?
