Half of all Western women suffer from the 'baby blues'; this is fairly common and usually occurs during the first week following the birth and may only last a day. Postnatal depression on the other hand is experienced by 1 in 10 women within the first few weeks of giving birth. It can last for up to a year after the baby has been born and can be treated in a variety of ways. Written by someone with first-hand experience of postnatal depression, this book is authoritative, comforting, and hopeful. It focuses on coping strategies for day-to-day life, how to approach your treatment and where to find support. Each chapter is standalone so readers can dip in and out, making it useful for partners and family members as well.
