Postpartum Depression

Postpartum depression is a depressive disorder that develops during pregnancy or after childbirth and is more persistent and impairing than the short-lived mood changes commonly called the baby blues. Hormonal shifts, sleep disruption, physical recovery, stress, and prior mental-health vulnerability can contribute, causing low mood, loss of interest, guilt, anxiety, and difficulty functioning or bonding.
