Helpful Score: 4

This was better than I expected. Somehow it is comforting knowing that Postpartum Depression isn't concerned with a person's occupation, color, age, etc. She was very honest with her own experiences and shared facts as well. Shields encourages others to seek help getting over something that one out of 10 women suffer from. One of her quotes is, "It was comforting to know that those people who had experienced Postpartum Depression, but who had reached out for help not only came through it, they did so with healthy bonded relationships with their children. This is a book I will be passing on or referring people to if they or anyone they know or love is going through this horribly common condition that threatens to take the joy out of new motherhood.
