Quote:The numbers this site is showing jives with numbers I've seen on other sites as well. They say that PPP afflicts about 1 to 2 women per 1000 (so a 0.1% to 0.2% of mothers). PPD afflicts far more than this.
PPP and PPD are two seperate issues. are you implying that their numbers on PPP are lower than you've read elsewhere? PPD is the more common and less drastic disorder so obviously it would afflict more individuals than PPP.
