class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of us may think \u2018baby blues\u2019 is about a blue baby deprived of oxygen and has turned blue. In reality, \u201cbaby blues\u201d are the feelings of sadness that a mother experiences right after delivery. This sadness can go on for almost two weeks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Symptoms include mood swings, crying spells, anxiety, disturbed sleep, sad feelings and anger, difficulty concentrating, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many new parents feel this way due to the increased responsibility of a new baby. You don\u2019t even need to get treatment for this. \u2018Baby Blues\u2019 usually go away on their own.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Postpartum depression is something different and more severe.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what_is_postpartum_depression\"><\/span>What is Postpartum Depression?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Postpartum depression (PPD) is a form of depression in new mothers after childbirth. It can develop within the first few weeks after delivery or even up to a year later. PPD is a serious medical condition that affects a woman&#8217;s mental health, emotions, behavior, and ability to care for her child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to psychiatrists at <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/hospitals\/lahore\/iqra-medical-complex-8778\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Iqra Medical Complex<\/a>, postpartum depression can cause feelings of sadness, hopelessness, anxiety, and exhaustion and can also cause physical symptoms such as headaches and loss of appetite. A woman with PPD may have trouble bonding with her baby, have difficulty sleeping, and experience intense mood swings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what_is_the_root_of_postpartum\"><\/span>What is the \u2018Root\u2019 of Postpartum?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Postpartum Depression is related to biological and psychological reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"hormonal_imbalance\"><\/span>Hormonal Imbalance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The chemical changes in the mother\u2019s body during pregnancy involve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6992410\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">the surging and lowering of hormones<\/a>. The female reproductive hormones, Progesterone and Estrogen, may increase tenfold during pregnancy. However, these same hormones drop sharply at the time of birth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/doctors\/lahore\/gynecologist\/dr-rabbia-ashraf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Rabbia Ashraf<\/a>, a renowned Gynecologist, these hormones go back to their pre-pregnancy level within three days.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"social_and_psychological_pressure\"><\/span>Social and Psychological Pressure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Social and psychological pressures can exacerbate postpartum depression, making it more difficult for new mothers to cope with the challenges of motherhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These pressures include expectations from family, friends, and society regarding how a new mother should behave and feel after giving birth. For example, a new mother may feel overwhelmed to be happy and grateful for her new baby, even if she struggles with depression and anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Psychological pressures can stem from the demands of caring for a newborn, which can be overwhelming and exhausting. New mothers may feel pressure to be perfect caregivers and meet their baby&#8217;s needs at all times, even if it means neglecting their physical and mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_do_you_know_if_you_have_postpartum_blues\"><\/span>How Do You Know If You Have Postpartum Blues?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Postpartum Depression can be mistaken for \u2018baby blues\u2019 at first. However, you should know that the symptoms are much more severe and last longer than the two weeks of baby blues. Sometimes the symptoms persist for longer than a year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a list of Postpartum Depression (PPD) symptoms. If you can relate to some of them, you must be going through PPD.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"crying_spells\"><\/span>Crying Spells<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Crying spells are episodes of uncontrollable crying and feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and despair.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These crying spells may occur for no apparent reason or get triggered by something as simple as a baby crying or a stressful situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"unable_to_bond_with_the_baby\"><\/span>Unable to Bond with the Baby<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is common for women with postpartum depression (PPD) to have difficulty bonding with their babies. PPD can cause feelings of sadness, guilt, and worthlessness, making it hard to connect with your baby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is essential to understand that these feelings are not your fault, so it doesn\u2019t mean you are not a good mother. PPD is a medical condition, and it is not a reflection of your abilities as a parent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"depressed_feelings\"><\/span>Depressed Feelings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The portion of depressed feelings is too much during Postpartum Depression.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PPD may make a mother feel hopeless, helpless, and worthless, with a tarnished self-image. Moreover, the feelings of lost beauty and unattractiveness are overwhelming. The loss of interest and pleasure in daily activities is apparent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Having Postpartum Depression is terrifying.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"suicidal_ideation\"><\/span>Suicidal Ideation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Suicidal ideation is an extreme symptom of postpartum depression (PPD) that should be taken very seriously. Women with PPD may experience thoughts of harming themselves or their babies, and it can be very distressing and overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to remember that suicidal ideation is a symptom of PPD and not a personal failure or weakness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"difficulty_in_decision_making\"><\/span>Difficulty in Decision Making<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may experience difficulty in concentrating on everyday life tasks and decision-making.

The risk increases with certain factors such as having given birth to twins or triplets before, having financial problems, unplanned or unwanted pregnancy, having a family history of Depression and <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/diseases\/bipolar-disorder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bipolar Disorder<\/a>, having a weak support system, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you relate to any of these risk factors, you must work on managing your mental health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"when_should_you_seek_a_psychologists_help\"><\/span>When Should You Seek a Psychologist\u2019s Help?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Postpartum Depression is dangerous for new mothers. It hinders their ability to enjoy bonding with their newborn. It is worst for the mother&#8217;s mental health, as well as the general well-being of the other family members.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you feel an extreme change in your overall mental health after giving birth, contact a mental health professional to help you with postpartum blues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ways_to_get_treatment_for_postpartum_depression\"><\/span>Ways to Get Treatment for Postpartum Depression<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Postpartum Depression is a psychological illness, and it usually is treated with medication along with Psychotherapy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"medication\"><\/span>Medication&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your doctor can suggest certain medications, such as antidepressants and anti-anxiety pills.
