ANXIETY & DEPRESSION SUPPORT Calling all Moms to talk about Depression
#NotAshamedToTalk
Every Woman goes through 'Baby Blues' after pregnancy. However, feeling empty, sad and worthless all the time can indicate the possibility of 'Postpartum Depression'. Many international Celebrity Moms like Serena Williams have come out in the open to talk about this but Indian Moms are still quiet on this topic. Can Indian Moms come together & share their experiences about 'Postpartum Depression' ? Can they tell each other that it is normal & can be treated ? Share your Views Now

Anxiety took over me, even now. "Will I be good enough?" is my constant worry.

hi pallavi, we both are on the same track. The problem arised only after the baby birth as we became dependent on others. Till now we are independent and are able to manage everything. once we became dependent everyone starts showing their true faces. Dont be nervous, once our kid start going to school everything will settle down. Be stubborn to face any kind of situation at any time. Usually some gap will be arise between couple after baby due to one or the other reasons, it might be baby or in-laws or your health conditions. Dont worry, try to spend quality time with baby and your husband.
thnx dear for your lovely suggestion

Hi all...., i am the mother of three months old baby boy. in my 37th week of pregnancy my hubby attacked with dengue fever, n on 40th week of delivery i have undergone 27 hours of labour pain, on the day of delivery my mom attacked with viral fever....., after all these we have decided to go to my mother in laws hometown. My MIL is a typical person, she is having half knowledge n always says opposite to me. if i say right she says it is wrong n if i say something is wrong she says it is right. initially she dint allow me to feed my baby for every 2hrs, she said we have to feed only when baby cries. when i am trying to make him sleep she says let him play. now she is not allowing me to go to my moms house after 3rd month and not even allowing to go to my house and insisting my husband in the concern of baby let her stay here upto 5months. All my maternity leaves are going like this dipressed, am unable to enjoy with my baby, she z not allowing me to make him bath r dress up, applys lot of kajal into his eyes even though he cries. Finally now she z planning after maternity leave i have to leave my kid with her so she z trying seperate me from him n making habituated to her. when i take baby into arms she says keep him in cradle r on bed n let him grow. only for the sake of feeding she z allowing me to take him. Day by day i am feeling like hell with her, i am not able to get out of the situation, i have lost interest in all the worldy things, dont have any right to spend with my kid.
