Probably <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/fashion\/serial-shopper\/pregnancy-wear-37821.html\">from the maternity<\/a> ward. Actually I remember being paralysed with my baby. Once back home, I had a break of two weeks before the anguish engulfed me. My baby was adorable, he slept\u00a0through the nights but it was me who could not sleep. I felt completely incapable and that everybody could see my flaws. Nothing about me was 'natural' as I felt like a robot executing commands because I 'had to'. I was sad and I could not eat and I wondered: 'When is this all going to stop?'\"<\/p> <p>In their book '<em>From the baby blues to postpartum <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/health\/medical-news\/depression-meditation-over-medication-92120.html\">depression<\/a><\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/health\/medical-news\/depression-meditation-over-medication-92120.html\">,<\/a>' the psychoanalyst and journalist Katia Denard and Josephine Lebard, show different testimonies. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/entertainment-lifelove\/female-furor-10-books-by-women-for-women-106007.html\">Both authors <\/a>mentioned that they would have liked to read a similar book when they were going through this ordeal themselves.<\/p> <p>\"We've been there so we know what these women feel even if there is no postpartum depression that resembles what another person is facing,\" says Josephine Lebard. Both stories also show that we can get out and talk about this experience, as painful as it is.
