All time anxiety makes her in depression. Society is so demanding then to her. Myths, Rituals, Family rules and regulation make her life more miserable. You should do this,  do not do that. Why do you did that, off you are a bad mom. Such comments make her nearly mad. No one think that it is a totally new journey for her. No one understand that she also need rest, care, sympathy. She also need to cherish momma ship phase. This super Judgemental society never  helps a mom to be a mom really. So this brings another problem. Postpartum depression.

The term sounds good but the phase is horrible. No body needs me now, I am a machine, my duty towards my family ends here. I am ugly. I am finished.....these lines make the situation more sensitive. New moms started staying lonely. Where there is light their is darkness or A lonely darkness prevails just under the shiny bright flame of a lamp. Where there is light their is darkness or a lonely darkness prevails just under the shiny bright flame of a lamp. The situation is just like that. Each and every family members loves the child. think only about the child. The child gets whole attention. But who thinks about the mom? Is she there for only feeding? Changing diapers? Calming cry? Why? The depression goes dark to darker to darkest. There is no way out. There is no light.

All moms gone thought various pros and cons pre settled by families, friends, relatives, doctors. They are helpless, fragile, depressed, sad. No self time for them. Dry hair, dark circles, shapeless body, sleepless months make them so tired that they can not really think about exercising. There is no motivation at all. They need time, they need good food, they need rest, they need support, some lines that make her feel great, feel proud. Give them some time to cherish this new dreams.

So, fer these reasons the post pregnancy workouts are often not entertained by new moms.
