I have a 4 1/2 month old daughter and I thought I would be past the postpartum depression by now. The thing is I'm not sure if its postpartum related or just pms? For one thing my periods are about 35-37 days apart (are periods after delivery regular or irregular? I'm not breastfeeding) and I've been having really bad mood swings, I mean fits of rage or just breaking down in tears and I'm not sure why. I think it might be pms as I've started craving jalapenos and tortillas as well as loads of chocolate. Is it still postpartum and then the pms is making it worse? I've also been experiencing a lot of headaches. Thanks for any helpful advice!
 
postpartum can last for 2 years after delivery. but you could also have depression that is not postpartum. you should talk to your doctor. good luck and congrats!
