She only gave birth to her daughter a month ago but Emily Skye has shared a photograph of her incredible body transformation.But despite her positive life-changing experience, the fitness star from the Gold Coast revealed she had suffered ‘badly’ from the ‘baby blues’.Just days after becoming a doting mother to her baby girl Mia into the world, the 33-year-old new mother said she was struggling with her emotions.’When I first had Mia I was obviously over the moon… but something I haven’t shared with you all is I suffered badly with the baby blues,’ Skye wrote in an Instagram post.’I’d previously heard about the “baby blues” but I never understood it. I couldn’t ever imagine feeling down after having Mia.’Well it happened to me! A few days after having her I started feeling really depressed, I hadn’t slept in days and my hormones would have been all over the place when it hit me.’Your body goes through SO much having a baby, and while most of the changes are physical and obvious, there are a lot of things that aren’t so obvious like your hormones and emotions.’Previously suffering from postnatal depression, the young mother said she was crying constantly when she spent ‘at least 10 days feeling really sad’.’I couldn’t understand how I was so blessed and happy to have my precious Mia and yet I felt soooo miserable,’ she said.But despite her struggles, Emily – who gained 21 kilograms while pregnant – said she has since overcome her emotions.’Luckily those feelings passed and I started feeling more normal,’ she said.’My hormones were balancing, I managed to get some sleep and what really we helped me was moving my body.’I started some light workouts mainly walking and I felt so much better instantly. It’s amazing how good you feel after moving your body and getting the blood flowing.’I already feel like a new person. The natural high you get is the best – I hadn’t had that in about four months and oh how I’d missed that feeling.’The Instagram star, who has more than 2.2 million followers, revealed how exercising has helped change her mindset for the better.’It makes me feel so good and no matter what I’m going through at the time I’m able to deal with it so much better when I’m exercising,’ she said.She urged her followers to take up fitness.’If you have been putting off getting fit please just do it – you won’t regret it,’ she said.’It will honestly be one of the best things you’ll ever do for yourself (and your loved ones.’Yes starting is hard, yes you’re going to feel uncomfortable, yes it’s going to take commitment and time and HELL YES it WILL be totally worth it.’For confidential support, please call Lifeline Australia on 13 11 14 or PANDA helpline on 1300 726 306.
