Postpartum depression is a very real mood disorder that can severely affect the mental and emotional wellbeing of new parents. Left untreated, postpartum depression can cause problems with establishing a healthy parent-child bond and can negatively impact both partner relations and the child’s development.
Fortunately, postpartum depression is treatable, and the hardest step is often to acknowledge and accept that the symptoms go beyond the very common baby blues.
