While there are some risk factors -- such as history of mental health problems -- PPD can affect anyone, says Chris Raines, perinatal psychiatric nurse and chair of the board of Postpartum Support International, an organization focused on spreading awareness of the condition and providing support. "People are predominantly happy and then all of a sudden, they're crying and overwhelmed and they're saying 'Why am I crying? I don't have anything to cry about'," she says,"It usually lasts around two to three weeks, and the symptoms gradually start to get better. If the symptoms don't get better or get worse, that would be the red flag."
A sleeping baby should also be the opportunity for parents to rest, explained the nurse."If the baby's sleeping and the mom can't sleep... that is red flag for me."Pranaiya with her niece and nephew. Raines instead uses it"to assess how the client is feeling [and] as a starting point for conversation."
Specialists are even more scarce. Dr. Chutima is, to her knowledge, the only officially trained perinatal psychiatrist in Thailand.
