The Journey of Motherhood

At the start of the motherhood journey, you will learn to hold and cautiously protect your little darling and venture into the new unknown challenge and future. Naturally, you will start to have a lot of worry, fatigue, anxiety and wonder whether you are able to give the best and make sure your little darling will grow healthily and happily.

Being a mother means being completely and totally overwhelmed by love, joy, responsibility, and selflessness.

After giving birth, a mother looks at her newborn baby happily but her worry never stops and emotions may fill her up most of the time. Slowly, without intervention, an overwhelmed mother may develop postpartum depression or social anxiety.

 

5 Tips for the Mothers to Reduce Stress and Worries:

New mothers may need a lot of help, especially the one experiencing depressive symptoms in the exhausting postpartum period. Recommend that you seek professional help from a psychologist, psychiatrist, or other mental health worker.
