Postpartum Depression

The CDC reports that 1 in 8 women suffer from postpartum depression in the wake of childbirth. However only about 50% of those women are actually diagnosed and treated for postpartum depression, and a big reason for that is simply not knowing enough about postpartum depression to recognize and understand the signs and symptoms. Kristen Wesler courageously shares her story about how she discovered that she was dealing with postpartum depression after the birth of her second baby, and how she found victory in what some might call a "perfect storm" of circumstances. If you think you might be dealing with postpartum depression, we want to encourage you to reach out to your doctor, spouse or a friend immediately for some help and accountability. You are not alone!
