Symptoms of postpartum depression

Many expectant mothers are relieved when they see themselves giving birth to their lovely babies smoothly, but sometimes they always feel aggrieved, thinking that their life is particularly unfortunate and the pressure is particularly great. The mother puts the blame of everything on the father and the baby, thinking that it is all their fault and that the people around the expectant mother are also affected. In fact, this is a symptom of postpartum depression.

If a woman experiences extreme mood swings during pregnancy, such as moving or friends leaving, it can lead to postpartum depression. Many cases show that many female friends have already shown symptoms of postpartum depression during pregnancy. Today I will give you a detailed introduction:

What are the symptoms of postpartum depression?

1. Feeling low during the day and high at night, showing a phenomenon of day and night reversal.

2. Losing interest in almost everything, feeling that life is boring and tasteless, and living is a torture.

3. Appetite increases or decreases significantly, and weight gain or loss varies greatly.

4. Poor sleep or severe insomnia, feeling drowsy during the day.

5. Mentally anxious or dull, often getting angry over trivial matters, or remaining silent, refusing to eat or drink for several days.

6. Feeling abnormally tired or weak.

7. Unable to concentrate, confusing language expression, lack of logic and comprehensive judgment ability.

8. Have obvious inferiority complex, often blame themselves excessively involuntarily, and lack confidence in everything.

After experiencing postpartum depression, don't panic. You must go to the hospital for treatment in time and receive treatment with the help of a doctor. In addition, your family and friends around you should also give support, especially your husband's understanding, which can greatly improve the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and family harmony. If mothers show signs of depression, they must seek medical attention promptly to avoid tragedy.
