"Baby Blues"
The baby blues is not considered a disorder by the medical community because the majority of women experience it, and because it will eventually regulate itself within a few weeks.

- Lack of concentration
- Feelings of dependency

Jodi's Story
 I had struggled with depression for several years prior to becoming pregnant with my first daughter. Postpartum depression was a very real fear for me. I chose to stay on antidepressants after her birth just to avoid the potential for it. When I became pregnant with my second daughter, I was determined to find another way.
