There is so much stigma and shame attached to postpartum depression many women don’t get help. It is a big, horrible secret they may even keep even from their husbands. It can be hard to understand how a mother wouldn’t love her child from the moment they’re born. But as many as 1/4 of women suffer with postpartum depression. When Jessica Gale Friesen had her first baby she thought she’d love him unconditionally but postpartum depression stopped her from bonding. Jessica has written a book about her personal journey – This Will Not Break Me.
