Is it normal to feel emotional after having a baby? I randomly feel like I could cry or do and I feel so alone especially when my husband is at work.. I don't know if it's just because my family is in the states and I'm stuck in Italy so I miss them a lot. Plus I wish I had some of their help with the baby 😕

Usually starts within the first week but it can take a little longer. It's just your hormones balancing out, which is pretty tough all around. Could you call your doctor?

@coraanne, does that start after delivery because my daughter is over two weeks old and it just started a few days ago. Thank you though!

A lot of women will get what's called the "baby blues" where you're very, very emotional and sensitive after delivery but that should only last 7-14 days anything after that could possibly be the start of postpartum depression. Hang in there mama it will get get better!

yes its normal because you're going thru a hug transition. but if you start to constantly feel sad or depressed all the time then it could become postpartum depression. you should seek support from outside in that case
