Lisa Marie Presley feared that she wasn't going to be able to adapt to motherhood easily this time around.
Before she gave birth to her twins, Lisa Marie expected to experience post-partum depression.
Presley told Hello magazine, "That prior to the birth, she was convinced she would suffer from some form of depression when the girls arrived - because looking after twins is such hard work."
"I was expecting to go into some severe post-partum land. I was waiting for it to hit me. I had a couple of episodes of crying but they weren't unfounded. I'm glad it didn't actually get me. Everything is so freaky. 'Are they breathing? Are they OK?' They're so fragile. That freaks me out."
Post-Partum Depression effects so many women but, "Postpartum depression was more often reported by teenage moms, mothers with
less than 12 years of education, Medicaid patients, smokers, victims of
physical abuse before or during pregnancy, and women under
traumatic or financial stress during pregnancy."
Were you afraid of PPD? I was not afraid of it, but was affected by it nonetheless.
