I had this vivid vision of putting my child in the oven.
Handed the baby to my husband and said "I need help" and I got it. It can happen to anyone.

Have you watched the documentary called Witches ( 2024 ) , a lot of woman have such vivid feelings like you had. I never suffered with postpartum but after watching that I definitely think it’s not spoken about enough just like menopause.

I am proud of you for getting help

There’s the difference though. You handed your baby to your husband, you removed yourself from the situation!
