Option A(Correct): A. Maternity blues is the term used to describe a common postpartum
reaction that occurs in 50 to 70% of postpartum patients. It is characterized by tearfulness,
restlessness, and anxiety. Symptoms typically start in the first few days postpartum and
resolve within 2 weeks but certain patients continue to have the symptoms for several
weeks. Many symptoms may be seen in association with this disorder including headache,
backache, fatigue, forgetfulness, insomnia, weeping, depression, anxiety, and negative
feelings toward the newborn infant. Interestingly, another component of the syndrome may
be episodes of elation, and such mood lability can be especially distressing for the new
mother. Etiology is unclear. Certainly, the postpartum period with a newborn can be
stressful and life changing, which can certainly lead to mood changes and a number of
emotional responses. Some researchers have argued that changes in hormone levels are at
the root of the maternity blues, but this has never been definitively proven. This patient
does not have evidence of a true postpartum depression (e.g., insomnia, lack of appetite, or
anhedonia) or postpartum psychosis (e.g., bizarre thoughts) and she does not have any
thoughts of hurting herself or her baby. Therefore, the most likely diagnosis is maternity
blues and she should be given support and reassurance ,hospitalization not required usually.
