Model Chrissy Teigen, wife of John Legend and mother to 22 month old baby girl has opened up on post partum depression and her sincere wish that she not experience it with this second pregnancy.

While writing for April’s issue of Glamour magazine an essay on her past bout of postpartum depression, heavily pregnant Chrissy also revealed how she had battled with post partum depression and how she had no body to warn her or school her on it.

She said;

“Before this, I had never, ever in my whole entire life had one person say to me: ‘I have postpartum depression,’ ” writes Teigen on Instagram.

She added that she struggles with the term itself, “because the word depression scares a lot of people. I often just call it ‘postpartum.’ ” Maybe I should say it, though. Maybe it will lessen the stigma a bit.”

I didn’t know I had it. I knew I had an incrediblelife, and an incredible husband, and family, and all the resources necessary, and I knew I was personally unhappy, but I didn’t think anything was wrong with it because I just assumed that that’s the way it was.

You have a kid, you’re sad, you lose those endorphins, and that’s the way it is.”

Teigen had to have a ‘sit down’ talk with herself and come clean about what was really going on. She wishes one thing had been done differently with her past experience,

I do wish more people had spoken up around me. It took me to finally sit myself down because I think it’s hard for people to point something out.”

emphasizing, “Postpartum does not discriminate. I couldn’t control it. And that’s part of the reason it took me so long to speak up.”

She went on to say in the writing, “I’m speaking up now because I want people to know it can happen to anybody, and I don’t want people who have it to feel embarrassed or to feel alone. One thing I know is that-for me-just merely being open about it helps.”

It is noteworthy that the 92-year-old Atlantan got her big break when she was 91 years old, landing a role in the mega hit movie  as the Merchant Tribal Elder giving advice to the King of Wakanda. She told WSBTV in Atlanta that she didn’t even pursue acting until she was 88!

Casting callbacks don’t usually happen the way it did for Steel who submitted her audition and within an hour got a callback for a role in the blockbuster.

And of all the movies, Dorothy Steel ended up being cast in one of the highest grossing Marvel Cinematic Universe releases of all time, on her first try!

Talking about being cast in the movie, she said:

“If anyone would have told me I would be an actor, I would’ve said you got to be out of your mind.”

“Chadwick [Boseman] the King. Every day, he would make sure if I was on the set, he would come by and make sure he gave me a big ol’ hug and kiss.

“We were one big melting pot of Black people and we knew we were doing something that had never been done before.”

Dorothy Steel also told the Atlanta station that she believes the female heroes in the film helped the movie break records at the box office.

Steel said her role as Tribal Elder was fitting, especially because on set she also doubled as the resident grandmother.

Media personality, Gbemi Olateru has been trending online after her insightful tweets on marriage went viral.

She said: “Our generation has a lot of work to do. We need to understand that being a good wife /Mom goes beyond cooking great meals and having a low body count. Being a good husband /Dad doesn’t just stop at being able to provide. There’s so much more.

Let’s say your father was a great provider – He paid for EVERYTHING – it still doesn’t make him a great father. What if he used his money to bully you , your siblings or your mom into doing the things that HE WANTED?”
