My Pregnancy - Week 39

The Baby Blues – This is the happiest time of your life, right? This is what you've been waiting for...so why do you feel so sad? You may have heard people mention The Baby Blues, which refers to a state of heightened emotion after you give birth, in which you may cry more easily than is usual for you, or you may have trouble sleeping, or you may feel irritable, sad, or on edge. More than 80 percent of women report feeling blue immediately after birth; so if you feel this way, you aren't alone and you're not a bad person, a weak person, a bad mother, or any other negative thing you could possibly tell yourself.
