'''Postpartum Depression''', also known as Postnatal Depression, is a clinical form of depression experienced by mothers after they give birth. Men can experience it too, but it is much less common. 5% to 25% of women "experience" postpartum depression. It is commonly used as an excuse by feministic mothers as an excuse to not fulfill their motherly role.
