At Restore Counseling & Therapy, our experienced therapists can help you navigate the emotional landscape of new parenthood.

Understanding Postpartum Mood Disorders

While it’s common to experience “baby blues,” characterized by mood swings and tearfulness, these feelings typically resolve within a few weeks postpartum. However, if symptoms persist or intensify, it may indicate a postpartum mood disorder, such as postpartum depression (PPD), postpartum OCD, or postpartum anxiety.

Symptoms of postpartum mood disorders can include:

It’s important to note that these disorders can affect any new mother, regardless of background or circumstances, and that it does not make you a bad parent. Furthermore, new dads may also experience these kinds of symptoms.
