Query: PTSD

Brooke Shields had an extremely difficult labor. It was traumatic. More than PPD, it sounds like she was simply suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. While PTSD may be an aspect of PPD, the two are not *necessarily* mutually exclusive. Plenty of women who have lovely births suffer from PPD, simply for different reasons and with similar or different symptoms. Most new mothers will mention all of the same things going on with them, whether they are suffering from PPD or not: overwhelmed, unsure of themselves, failure of expectations, etc. I think our definition of PPD is outdated and is not to be defined by this author, for sure.I have to agree with other reviewers who stated that 1) the book is not well written and 2) there are many more helpful, comprehensive books on the subject. I refuse to argue the for/against drugs issue, for that is an issue every indivudal must make for herself.Above all, DO NOT attempt to identify with Brooke Shields or use this book as your PPD bible.
