She is 1 week postpartum and is asking me what is normal as far as sadness goes. When she asked there were tears streaming down her face. In her fairly good english she said she hears some sadness is normal, but I am unable to assess how depressed she is due to our language barrier. Is there a list of questions in Spanish which I could give her? One which if she were to say yes to X number of questions she should see her doctor?
She is without her husband except on Sunday and sees him in the late evening until early morning other days. The rest of the time her elderly mother in law is with her. She spends a lot in her apartment so I have offered to take her out with the baby a little each day. Any other suggestions?
-- Many Thanks, Nancy
