Postpartum Depression vs Baby Blues | Signs, Duration & When to Seek Help (Doctor Explains)

Описание: Motherhood is often portrayed as a time of pure joy — but the emotional reality after childbirth is much more complex.

In this video, a doctor explains the complete spectrum of Baby Blues and Postpartum Depression, including:

What baby blues really are
How postpartum depression is different
Why many mothers (and fathers) don’t realize they are struggling
Common emotional signs that are often ignored
How relationships are affected after becoming parents
When emotional changes become a medical concern
Why seeking professional help is important

🌱 Baby Blues:
Baby blues are temporary emotional changes caused by hormonal shifts, sleep deprivation, and adjustment to motherhood.
These symptoms usually last a few days to 1–2 weeks.

🚨 Postpartum Depression:
If symptoms like sadness, anger, guilt, emotional disconnect, or constant crying continue beyond 60–90 days, or even for months or years, it may be postpartum depression and needs professional support.

💡 Key message:
Postpartum depression is not weakness, not failure, and not something you can “just snap out of.”
Early awareness and timely help can protect both parents and the child.

📌 If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, please consult a mental health professional or therapist, even through online consultation.
