I think the best thing for you to do is seek help. it is common for moms to have post partum depression, and while we love our babies, the depression just creeps up. You need to seek professional help. If you are thinking thoughts about death and other mean things. Then it is best that you are either removed to heal or have someone with you 24/7 that can help you with things that are causing this stress. You can make it through this, but you have to seek help. Your husband needs to help you get the help you need for the safety of your son.
