Fighting through PPD

You wouldn’t typically think that bringing a child into this world would be something that would cause you to lose a part of yourself. But it is one of the most common things for a woman to experience. Struggling through postpartum depression affects a huge percentage of women every single year. And the symptoms can be absolutely devastating and even dangerous. I was lucky enough to be joined this week by two amazing women (Kyra and Danica), who spoke about their struggles and fights that they went through after giving birth, and why it is so important to recognize the symptoms of PPD and to talk to someone about what’s going on. There is no shame in seeking help and taking medications to balance the internal system that has been thrown off by child birth. For the sake of both Mother and child help is available.
