I battled depression after my daughter was born for about a year and I even saw a councelor. What we decided caused some of the depression was all the lack of sleep. My daughter did not sleep through the night for six months. When she finally did sleep and I got rest my brain started functioning again. I begain to process every thing I had just gone through and having a baby is a lot to go through. I did breast feed my child, I did have an epidural and I did not have a c-section. I don't think you will find a common ground here. I think just like every thing else it is how your body chooses to handle and respond to the hormone and physical changes you endure through out pregnancy and labor. Every body is different.
I can tell you one thing. It has all been worth it. I love my little girl and would do it all over again if I had to.
Good Luck! : )
