Postpartum Depression

You could not wait to be a mother, but you are not loving motherhood as much as you envisioned. You love your baby, but sometimes it’s difficult to hear and respond to its cry. You are grateful for your growing family, but you don’t feel fulfilled. You see other mothers embracing their role, but you are having a hard time attaching to your child. You strive to balance all your obligations, but you have a hard time completing any task. You want to enjoy this time in life, but you cannot seem to enjoy yourself. Your mental health may be affected by the emotions and responsibilities that come with motherhood, and you may need professional treatment for postpartum depression.

The year after birth is a critical time not only for an infant but also for a mother. Postpartum depression can occur anytime within the first year after any delivery—not just the first. Motherhood is tough, and the early months after a baby is born can be very isolating. Postpartum depression causes further isolation and makes the demands of motherhood feel unbearable.
