I Have Bipolar Disorder, Will I Have Ppd?

I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when I was 12 years old. After many different treatments, I'm finally on medication that keeps me balanced. As the end of my pregnancy nears, I'm starting to worry that my bipolar disorder will make me have PPD. If I have bipolar disorder that is being successfully treated with medication, will I still have PPD?
