Postpartum depression can be a very real problem for mothers. Many mothers feel some “ups and downs” after their babies are born. The sad feelings are commonly called “the baby blues.” Though a mother may feel down when she’s not getting enough sleep or can’t comfort her baby, the feeling doesn’t persist. Postpartum depression is different. The sad feelings, anxiety, and perhaps a sense of being “empty” don’t go away — they continue through daily life. Postpartum depression, though scary, generally responds well to treatment, letting a mother enjoy her baby and her life.
