They're on about increasing the number of tests for PND for the first year after having a baby. About bloody time. They should think about how they ask too. All I got asked was "are you having feelings of depression - yes or no?" by the doctor after six weeks, in front of my husband and then he looked relieved and ticked the box when I said no and moved quickly on to the next question. I can't think of anyone who would have felt able to confess they were feeling desperate in that situation and I was never asked again after that - although I started getting really low after the third month of motherhood but felt no-one was interested.
