MUMBAI: Sameera Reddy has been away from showbiz for a long time now. The 43-year-old actress has now opened up about suffering from postpartum depression after giving birth to her first child. She said that its after-effects also took a toll on her marriage.
"I questioned myself so many times if I should have a second baby. I was a complete wreck after my firstborn. PPD hit me like a brick. I lost control of my body and my self-worth. And it took a toll on my marriage because I had no clue how to handle it. I had a rock of a husband, amazing in-laws, and my family that never let my hand go thru it all and that really helped?? So many women ask me how I knew I wanted another child," Sameera was quoted saying.

She further added, "Honestly everyone’s journey is different and it’s hard to pin down what makes you sure. But I will tell you that the only thing i knew is that this lil girl, my Nyra, showed me how fearless I am and I knew it was my decision and I could handle it . Because those sleepless nights, the body changes and the adjustment to the firstborn is not easy .. but it’s not difficult either. So many factors - Financial, emotional or just plain support that can make it the right or wrong decision."
