Being a mum is hard, whether it’s your first or fifth time. The lack of sleep, changes in identity and lack of time for self-care can feel overwhelming. For some, having a baby can feel overwhelming and they may start to experience symptoms of depression.
Postnatal depression (sometimes referred to as postpartum depression) differs from typical depression because it occurs in the 12 months after birth. Interestingly around 70% of all new mums will experience the baby blues, however 10% of new mums will experience a more pervasive period of low mood along with physical symptoms starting within 1-2 months of birth
