Having a baby is a unique event, involving all kinds of emotions that you may not have expected in advance. Many women find motherhood quite a rollercoaster at first. Pregnancy and childbirth demand a lot from your body, also emotionally a lot happens.
First you live towards your baby for nine months and then there is the delivery that demands a lot from you. While your brain is still processing all the impressions and motions of childbirth, you have to work hard with feeding and sleepless nights and you ask yourself: 'am I doing it right for my baby?' That takes a lot of energy, just like depregnation. In any case, it is quite normal that it takes time to get completely back into balance physically and mentally.
