Often, we hear about mothers ignoring their needs while taking care of their newborn babies. However, it is very important for all mothers to take care of their own physical and mental health. Sameera Reddy is a mother to her son, Hans, and daughter, Nyra and recently she shared a post on her social media account and talked about dealing with postpartum depression after her first pregnancy. She also added that she questioned herself many times if she wanted to have a second baby but her husband and family members helped her during the tough time. In the post, she wrote, “I questioned myself so many times if I should have a second baby . I was a complete wreck after my first born . PPD hit me like a brick . I lost control of my body and my self worth. And it took a toll on my marriage because I had no clue how to handle it . I had a rock of husband, amazing in laws and my family that never let my hand go thru it all and that really helped.”
