Welcoming a new baby brings big changes, and it’s normal to experience a wide range of emotions.
The baby blues are common and typically improve within the first two weeks after delivery. Postpartum depression is different. Symptoms are more intense, last longer, and can make it difficult to care for yourself or your baby.
If you or someone you love is experiencing persistent sadness, anxiety, hopelessness or feeling disconnected after childbirth, know that you’re not alone and help is available. Reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness.
💕 If you’re concerned about postpartum depression or have questions about your mental health after pregnancy, our team at Mountain Utah Family Medicine is here to support you. Call 435-896-9651 to schedule an appointment.
