Nadia Mukami Speaks On Postpartum Depression As Her Son Hits 4 Months
Following a baby’s delivery, maternal depression may have life-threatening consequences and can affect both the mother and the child’s quality of life over the course of their lifetimes.
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).
Nadia Mukami, a Kenyan singer, recently said that although many women experience difficulties after giving birth, they would rather not discuss it.
She took to Instagram posting a video of her cute son Haseeb Kai with a caption that read “We just hit 4 months today!”
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.”
