The postpartum period can be both joyful and challenging, as new mothers adjust to life with their baby. During this time, emotional and physical changes can lead to feelings of exhaustion, stress, and even depression. Having a strong support system is essential for new mothers to navigate this transition smoothly.

Many new mothers experience shifts in their mental health, which can be exacerbated by sleep deprivation, physical recovery, and the demands of caring for a newborn. Emotional support from family, friends, and healthcare professionals can make a significant difference in managing postpartum challenges. Additionally, professional care and therapy can provide invaluable tools for coping with postpartum depression (PPD), anxiety, and feelings of isolation.

Symptoms of Postpartum Depression (PPD) include:

• Persistent sadness or feelings of hopelessness

• Lack of interest in activities or the baby

• Difficulty bonding with the baby

• Extreme fatigue or trouble sleeping

• Irritability and feelings of guilt or inadequacy
