I would say, you have your hands full having 5 children...
I hope you get to have some down time for yourself....
If you're not getting enough rest (sleep), this can affect your thinking process besides the postnatal feelings you might be having....
if your doctor didn't notice that you were suffering with post partum depression right after your child was born. really doesn't mean alot some people can be in a state of shock then the depression hits. my advise is to seek medical assistance . also you need someone to help you in for a while . I never went through post partum but, i've seen friends and family memebers went through it. your doctor will be our number one cheerleader in getting you and your baby help.
best wishes you and your family .
