Baby Blues (Sadness)
"Baby Blues" refers to a common emotional state experienced by new mothers shortly after childbirth. It typically involves feelings of sadness, anxiety, and mood swings, often triggered by hormonal changes, fatigue, and the stress of caring for a newborn. These feelings usually arise within the first few days postpartum and can last for a couple of weeks.
Unlike more severe conditions like postpartum depression, the Baby Blues are generally mild and temporary. Most women recover without treatment, but it's important for new mothers to seek support from family, friends, or healthcare providers if their feelings persist or worsen.
