My Sister-in-law has a gorgeous 9week old.

Since having him, I've gone over as much as I can, and have developed a nice friendship with her (She use to work long hours before so our schedule never worked to meet up)

Today, she admitted me to that since having the babe, shes become very anxious to leave him. Having panic attacks when she tries.

The Dr has suggested antidepressants, but she isnt keen as doesnt feel depressed.

I suggested just walking around the block and leaving babe with his daddy, and said I will even come over to walk.

Or even sit with baby if she'd rather her husband as support.

Just wish there was some better advice i could give her.

I could see when she was telling me, how much shes struggling with it.

She said she knows how silly it is, especially after she freaks out, but at the time she physically cant leave.

Has anyone been through this? And have some good advice i could offer her? Is this a side to PND?
