How do I recognise Postpartum Depression?
The postpartum period should be considered a vulnerable time for the development of emotional and psychological disorders. The last part of pregnancy and childbirth can be troublesome; the body goes through rapid changes, especially hormonal. In the first days postpartum the body often feels painful and uncomfortable.1 Many mothers go through the “baby blues” as their bodies and minds adapt to the hormonal changes and other upheavals which happen during the first week.
