Postpartum depression

Ppd (or PPD) is a health issue some women struggle with after giving birth. You may see it as an official abbreviation used by health professionals, but you will likely see the ppd abbreviation on social media or birth and pregnancy online forums.

Or, a mom may look back at one of her pregnancies on social media, "For some reason, my first two pregnancies were great, but my third was arduous, and I suffered from really bad ppd."

I'm sorry to hear that. How can I help?
