COME OUT OF DEPRESSION!

Every human is not so open to invite changes...though we are prepared for them, waiting for them, still when the time comes, we hesitate to accept those changes.

I have to write a disclaimer now!...What we are going to discuss now may not happen with every new Mom. Dont force your mind to think of it. Spend every day Happily.

Pregnancy comes with lot many surprises and challenges too! Hormonal changes are the cause, many a times. Delivery has its own clauses. Suddenly you dont like your tiny baby, the sweet li'l one of your dreams. Reasons, unknown. You feel like crying, you are irate, you shout at your husband.....

Sametime, these extreme mood swings are not common, not every new Mom feels this way. If you or someone you know is depressed after delivery, just know one thing, you are not letting it affect your life. it is not going to stay with you forever. These feelings arise due to constantly staying in one room, nursing the child often without rest, feeling feverish due to bodily changes, seeing a crying baby beside you, restless days and nights, your body still in pain after the delivery, spending without any contact to the World, your most comfortable routine, disturbed.

To feel better,there are some options..

Have the people you like, around you.

Let your closest friends come and visit the baby..but make sure the environment is not infected by any means.

Watch good movies, read books on Child care, these are your times of great interest in those topics.

Get help in cooking, you should be constantly eating to regain strength and nurse often.

If you have gained so much weight, dont worry. let not people bother you.

That weight will disappear once you start doing things on your own after Grandma's gone.

Cover your self, with sweaters, ear muffs, socks..those sudden chills are common after delivery. Warmth will give you relief.

Dont sit and think about feeling depressed. Keep yourself happy. Run away from idle thoughts. Better have a Handycam and keep capturing those sweet moments with the Baby.
