Yes, PND can happen in the first two years of a baby's life.

I suppose that general depression can happen at any point in your life.

I hope you are feeling better and not suffering with side affects of ADs.

In my experience PND doesn't take into account your state of health, relationship, financial or employment status Smile it's a tricky little thing that can strike at any time to anyone.
Good luck with the tablets & medication. I'm sure you'll start feeling better soon ( but don't let anyone rush you)
