Question:
What are the signs and symptoms of postpartum depression?
Answer:
Women with PPD may experience anxiety, sadness, feeling overwhelmed, inability to sleep even when tired or inability to get out of bed. Some women have a poor self-image, poor appetite, lose interest in things that were once enjoyable to them, or have panic attacks. Mothers often feel distant from their baby, partner and friends.
