Postpartum Anxiety Natural Treatment
It's frustrating when you experience heart palpitations - out of the blue.
You've never struggled with this before.
Picture this.
You finally stop breastfeeding, then you can't sleep, and then you struggle with fatigue, overthinking, and panic attacks.
This is postpartum anxiety.
I never knew this.
And, when you believe you're no longer postpartum... they just call it "anxiety". But, it comes from the nutrient gaps you experience during childbirth.
