Beating the “baby blues”

If you find yourself in tears a few days after giving birth, don’t be alarmed. Up to 70% of women experience a mild case of the baby blues and are left feeling sad, teary, cranky, restless, or anxious.

  • Share with other moms. It’s a relief to know others have felt this way too.
  • Let your partner know if there are things he can do to help you such as assisting with housework or preparing meals.
  • Ask your physician whether you’re ready to resume exercise.
  • Seek help if you need it. If your feelings cause distress, start to interfere with your daily life, or last longer than two weeks, talk with your physician.
