Is your midwife aware of those things in your history?
Maybe I am wrong and there is more understanding than I have come across. I have come across some quite harsh midwives and professionals regarding this issue (Mental health and new mums) and maybe that is why it comes across so firm in my post.
I think if you are fully recovered and have a support network then it's different to if you are still having problems and are on your own as well.
