Postpartum depression (PPD) is a mental health disorder that can affect a mother's quality of life as well as her ability to bond with her baby fully. It can happen after the birth of any child, not just the first.
PPD is not a thing to be ashamed of and if you find yourself struggling after childbirth, please ask for help. Untreated PPD can become severe with time.
