Explanation:

After giving birth, it is common some women suffer from postpartum depression. This depression occurs due to the drop in hormones after giving birth and difficulties in fitting in a new role as a mother. The symptoms of this depression include anxiety, excessive crying, loss of appetite, mood swings, irritability or negative thoughts towards the baby and even suicidal thoughts. Additionally, this depression should be treated as soon as possible to avoid negative consequences or long-lasting depression.
