Abstract

Post-pregnancy, women experience complex physiological changes, including decreased hormone levels, trauma to the pelvic muscles, and the risk of complications such as pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence or sexual dysfunction. The process of uterine involution requires attention to prevent complications such as bleeding or infection. A comprehensive medical evaluation including examination of the reproductive organs and nutritional status of the mother is essential to ensure optimal recovery. On the other hand, psychological disorders such as postpartum depression (PPD) and anxiety are common in new mothers, affecting both maternal well-being and infant development. Hormonal fluctuations, social pressures and new responsibilities exacerbate these conditions. Lack of social support and cultural stigma compound the challenges mothers face. Psychotherapy-based interventions and integration of mental health services have proven effective in helping mothers overcome these psychological issues. Structural barriers, such as lack of access to health facilities and limited medical personnel, are obstacles to providing adequate post-pregnancy care. Community-based education programs and strengthened health services are needed to increase awareness and access. With a holistic approach that includes both physical and mental aspects, post-pregnancy recovery can be optimized, improving the overall quality of life for mothers and families.

Abstract

The postpartum period is a challenging transition period, with significant physical, psychological, and social changes for mothers. One common condition is baby blues, a mild mood disorder that usually appears in the first two weeks after giving birth. Around 70-80% of mothers experience baby blues symptoms such as anxiety, fatigue, and difficulty sleeping, which can disrupt the early relationship between mother and baby and slow recovery. Despite its high prevalence, this disorder is often considered normal and does not require intervention, whereas if not handled properly, the symptoms can develop into postpartum depression. Research shows that adequate emotional support from husbands and families can significantly reduce these symptoms. Unfortunately, many families lack understanding of postpartum psychological conditions, so they often provide unsupportive responses, which actually worsen the mother's condition. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to describe the experiences of mothers facing baby blues and the role of husband and family support in their recovery. The findings of this study emphasize the importance of education about postpartum maternal mental health and the need for changes in the social support system to be more sensitive and responsive to reduce the psychological impact on mothers and children
