Postpartum is the period of time after the birth of a baby when the body is changing back to normal. It lasts about 6 weeks or until the uterus returns to its normal size.

During this time, a woman she goes through huge emotional and physical changes. Being a new mom means riding the emotional roller coaster of postpartum hormones, dealing with sleep deprivation, adjusting to changing body, and recovering from childbirth – all while caring for the newborn.

2. Post partum depression or baby blues
