Now, we all know the data that says that women are susceptible to the condition or the more benign form of “baby blues,” basically due to fluctuating hormonal factors. But it’s not just women who feel sadness or depression after becoming a new parent. There’s a new study that just came out stating the men can experience post-partum depression too. While this study is making the rounds of news headlines, it’s not all news to me.

People’s sense of warmth and compassion becomes evident through the selfless giving during these times.
