Post-partum MDD?: Sounds like post-partum depression, altho occurring a bit late at one year from delivery. Increased somatic complaints (body aches), & vegetative disturbances (sleep, ) plus emotional changes, like depression are the trifecta for depression. However before any psychologic diagnosis is made, you should have a checkup with your doctor. Consider thyroid & other problems, first. Mdd= major depression.
