Celebrities That Have Boldly Spoke About Postpartum Depression

A milestone in a family’s life, the birth of a child is typically an occasion that is eagerly anticipated and filled with excitement.

Postpartum depression is a psychological condition where new mothers are typically depressed and irritable, have trouble sleeping, have sobbing fits, and feel anxious and tense.

When this happy occasion is followed by such a state of anhedonia, many women are astonished (inability to feel pleasure in normally pleasurable activities).

Celebrities have spoken about their experiences. They’re here;

Nadia Mukami

Nadia Mukami, a Kenyan singer, recently said that although many women experience difficulties after giving birth, they would rather not discuss it.

We just hit 4 months today,” she captioned a video she posted on Instagram of her adorable kid Haseeb Kai.

She continued by saying that one thing she had discovered was that while pregnancy is simple, the time immediately following childbirth presents greater difficulties, but she did go on to explain that she had survived.

Finally, she advised people to check on new mothers because it’s not as simple a journey as it may seem.

“The period after giving birth,those months are the hardest!The first 3-4 months of motherhood are crazy!!I survived!Please check on any new moms you know.”

Vanessa Mdee

Recently, Vanessa Mdee also gave birth to a kid, and in an Instagram post, she claimed that most people are unaware of what postpartum depression is.

“Many people are unaware of the difficulties associated with postpartum depression and what it’s like to be a new mother.

Georgina Njenga

Baha’s partner, a former Machachari performer, just gave birth and spoke about her postpartum experience. She did this after publishing a vote on her Instagram story.

One fan asked her “Postpartum depression, have you had it?“She went on to respond saying “Yes i have but I’ve found a way to deal with it and I am better compared to a few weeks ago.”

Body changes are another factor that could cause postpartum depression, and Georgina has undergone significant physical change that has led to bullying.

“Ever since I came back to my social media accounts, I’ve come across all comments “Your bosom are sagged” “they are bigger” “umenona” “work on your body” and other nasty things,” wrote Georgina.

Georgina, though, made it clear that she would never give in to online trolls.

Corazon Kwamboka, a socialite, talked about her issues with mental health a few days after she acknowledged that she had experienced postpartum depression.

The mother of two recounted on her Instagram page how she struggled with depression and had to spend a few days in the hospital.

She explained that although the situation was intended to be private, it ended up on blogs, compelling her to discuss it in public.

She advised Kenyans to avoid making light of sadness, noting that anyone can experience it and that not everyone who discusses it publicly seeks attention.
