Renowned gospel musician Selina Boateng has shared her struggles with postpartum depression following the birth of her child in the United States.
During an interview on The Delay Show, she disclosed that she experienced a period of deep sadness and unexplained crying about a week after giving birth, lasting approximately three weeks.
“I was depressed after I gave birth. A week after I gave birth in the US, I became depressed. I was saddened and could cry unprovoked. It is called postpartum depression,” Selina Boateng revealed.
Addressing concerns about her weight gain, she clarified that the changes in her body were a result of the aftermath of childbirth, not excessive eating. Dismissing body-shaming, she expressed her disappointment with comments that fail to recognize the natural changes women undergo after giving birth.
“I feel very bad about the act of body-shaming, especially in the context of postpartum weight gain. I am not alone in experiencing changes in my body after childbirth; it is a natural process,” she emphasized.
“While some comments serve as motivation for me to embark on a weight loss journey, others are unnecessarily rude.”
Despite facing criticism, Selina Boateng remains committed to her weight loss journey and shares her proactive approach, stating, “I’m very active. It’s been sixteen days, but it has been worth it. I know I have a long way to go.”
The artist’s openness about her struggles aims to shed light on postpartum depression, body image issues, and the challenges faced by women in the public eye. Selina Boateng also emphasized the need for empathy and understanding in discussions surrounding women’s postpartum experiences.
