I think that’s definitely true, there seems to be more conversation about mental health than ever and the conversation around feminism has also opened up. Sorry (not sorry) your mama is crazy #Bump ?Ī post shared by Rachel Adedeji on at 6:07am PDT #Throwback to me being a clown on my 26th birthday. So again it’s that lack of education and I feel like nowadays, in 2018 especially, people are more open about mental health and more open about breastfeeding a lot more open about these female normalities we all go through and it’s ok to have these issues and discuss it! I remember one who messaged me who had two children, but was only 17 when she’d had her first, said that she wished that she’d breast fed with her first baby but at the time because she was young and relatively naïve about the situation, she thought boobs were for a sexual purpose. So for me, I had to be open about it and I had a lot of mums reaching out to me saying ‘I’m so glad you’ve spoken about it’.Ī lot of my supporters who are young girls who watch me on Hollyoaks, who have had babies at a young age, all say that being young and having a baby, it’s a lot harder to talk about it because a lot of your friends can’t relate. It was really hard for my husband, who is obviously not going through the same thing as me, so has his own way of dealing with it, so it did kind of put a strain on our relationship. So you come home, you’re walking up and down the stairs with stitches down below and all these things, so it’s very overwhelming and you’re allowed to have an off day. I didn’t have the best of births in terms of the whole procedure, I ended up having to have an episiotomy, and that wasn’t very nice.

You haven’t got that bump anymore, you now have to live a real life of being a mother, learning how to breastfeed, learning how to deal with it all. So I started reaching out to others mums and realised, oh my god, this is ok, I’m allowed to feel like this!īecause just think about it, you’ve been going through this thing of growing a human for nine months, it’s just come to an end. It wasn’t until I mentioned it to my best friend, who has a friend who has a baby, she said ‘oh that’s normal, my friend who’s got a kid said that she experienced that too’.

Then I noticed that when it went on for more than a week – because the midwife said to me at the time that it shouldn’t last any more than a few days – and when I was still sad after two/three weeks I thought there’s something wrong. I remember feeling really sad about that and not wanting to talk to anyone about it. I remember sitting back and saying to my husband, ‘I have everything that I could possibly want here, I have you my loving husband’, we’d just bought a house and that was all sorted, ‘I have this perfect baby, my family are here’ but all I wanted to do was go on a walk with the dog and cry.

I almost wish I knew what I was upset about. I was like ‘ok cool, baby blues, whatever’ and then it wasn’t until I started to feel sad, I remember not really having an answer for it and that was very frustrating for me. I remember the midwife coming round and saying to me ‘you might start to feel hormonal, and very upset and that’s ok it’s just the baby blues’. In the press, you’ve talked about your experiences with the baby blues – can you give us a bit of insight as to what this meant for you?įor me, I didn’t even know what the baby blues were until the day I gave birth. Gurrll I will carry you close to my heart forever and ever ?Ī post shared by Rachel Adedeji on at 3:51am PDT
