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.

Relaxation of the body and mind is essential during pregnancy and labour. it is important for a mother to remain mentally relaxed as if she is exposed to long-term stress and anxiety this can have a negative impact on her body. The immune system can be affected creating a higher risk of illness and increased blood pressure. Adrenaline may also cross through the placenta to the baby, inhibiting the conversion of omega oils into Docasa Hexanenoic Acid (DHA) essential for brain development. Anxiety causes the production of Adrenaline which inhibits our body from producing endorphins, our bodies own natural pain killer, and oxytocin, the hormone that causes the uterus to contract. This is counterproductive for labour as adrenaline levels cause the body to react with the fight or flight response. Our body then sends oxygen to the vital organs such as the heart and lungs. The uterus is not considered a vital organ, therefore the oxygen supply is diminished;. muscles become sticky with lactic acid, tighten and may stop working altogether causing a painful and prolonged labour.
