Yes, PPD is real. Yes, Post Partum psychosis is real. They are both frightening and horrific conditions to have.
BUT....IF she killed this baby and her defense will be PPD/PPP, I say good luck with that one. It won't fly.
People with PPD/PPP do NOT have the mental capacity to make up stories (LIES) to save their a**es from future consequences.
Another thing that totally irks me, and I know I'm not alone (others just won't post it) is that most every time there is a case here where a woman kills a child, the first "defense" is, "Oh, PPD! PPD!"
When a guy kills a child, it's more like, "I hope that



rots in hell for eternity. What an evil so-and-so!"
Like I said, I know PPD/PPP is very real and does happen to SOME women, but it is just not so in every.single.case.
