Post partum blues: this is very common. it may resolve on its own, or you may be advised to start medication. Your doctor will ask you about your sleeping ( as if a new mother ever sleeps) and your mood. Then again, you may want to take this time to lose some weght and not think it is a problem yet. Post partum depression is a real problem so be alert to get help for this if indicated.
