Postpartum Depression

Chloe froze for a moment, immediately recalling what Iris had said the previous day about postpartum depression—insomnia, irritability...

 

"Could it be that you have postpartum depression, sis?" Chloe blurted out. Ava was stunned; she had heard of the term but had never associated it with herself.

 

"You look like you might have postpartum depression. Sleeplessness, vivid dreams, irritability... I really think you should see a doctor," Chloe said, struggling to stifle a yawn.

 

Ava fell into a contemplative silence. Could she really have postpartum depression?

 

"I don't know..." Ava murmured softly.

 

"Whether you do or not, you should see a doctor. If it is postpartum depression, it could affect the baby, and if it's not, even better. I know a specialist in this field. If you want, I can contact them for you."

 

"Thank you," Ava said.
