The baby blues a year later: possible?

The baby blues are a difficult time in a mother's life, but they don't last. When the unhappiness sets in, it is called postpartum depression.

  • The mood disorder known as the baby blues is a common phenomenon after childbirth, usually occurring within 3 to 10 days of birth.
  • To be considered as the baby blues, the feeling of depression should not last more than two weeks.
  • Beyond that, it may be a depression that needs to be treated by a health professional to be properly addressed.

Oh baby that's normal being a first time mom is overwhelming but you do need some you time as well if you can get your mom or sister or a close relative to get the baby for a couple of days while you get your thoughts together also call your ob/gyn and tell them how you feel they might can refer you to someone you can talk to as well

Live through the emotions but don’t live in them. It is temporary. Get some some light & self care 💕
