In response to Judy, I apologize for my unthinking use of acronyms. By GD I
mean gestational diabetes. PPD is indeed Postpartum depression in this
case. I'm intrigued by your comments regarding the link of thyroid problems
and PPD/mood swings and the like. I'm working with another mom, as some of
you might recall, who has been fighting depression for years and it has
worsened with each child (she now has 2 girls). BF has been all that has
been holding her together of late. I don't want to open a can of worms with
this mother but in the past she has been open to my hairbrained ideas and
taken them for what they are worth, and we've managed to muddle through
lots of things this way. Perhaps it's worth a comment to her about it. I
think my brain may explode from all I've learned since I joined Lactnet...I
don't know what I'd do without you guys, and the moms I've helped are just
as grateful to you, I know. And thank goodness I've figured out how to do
an archive search!

Cheers
