Hello,
Thanks for writing in to hcm.
Firstly the cardiac causes of chest pain need to be ruled out . Hence please contact a physician for an ECG and Echocardiography.

Secondly, post partum depression can be seen in post delivery women . Hence, it is advisable to consult a psychiatric for counselling as the pains could be due to depression and anxiety which need to be treated.

Kindly stay calm. Relax listen to music. Try to enjoy with your baby . Keep yourself busy with daily activities . Meet people . Talk to your partner and friends about your problems . This will help you relax.

Regards,
Dr.Riyanka
