This condition, known as the baby blues, generally improves within two weeks. However, if the sadness becomes more intense and lasts longer, it may be a sign of postpartum depression.<\/p>\n<p>Signs to watch out for include deep sadness or emptiness, difficulty feeling connected to the baby, loss of interest, feeling incapable of being a good mother, and excessive anxiety. This condition is not the mother&#8217;s fault and can happen to anyone.<\/p>\n<p>Support from a partner and family plays a very important role, for example by helping care for the baby so the mother can rest, and by listening without judgment. Consult a doctor, midwife, psychologist, or psychiatrist as soon as possible, either in person or through DokterIN.<\/p>\n<p>If you have thoughts of harming yourself or your baby, immediately call the emergency number 119, go to the nearest hospital emergency department, or ask someone you trust for help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feeling sad after giving birth can be more than the baby blues.
