Brynne, 39, became a first-time mum on April 21 when she gave birth to her daughter Starr Amari Gordon.
PND is a complex condition which affects one in five mothers and one in 10 fathers, and has no clearly defined causes.
The BetterHealth Channel website states: ‘PND is a depression that comes on within 12 months of having a baby, usually during the first few weeks or months.
‘It can start slowly or suddenly, and can range from very mild and transient, to severe and lingering.
‘For most women, it passes quickly, but others will need professional help.’

In June, Brynne told New Idea that she’d chosen to give her baby girl the surname Gordon – her maiden name – so she would ‘feel connected’ to her family in the U.S.
The former fitness instructor had adopted the last name Edelsten when she married the late Geoffrey Edelsten in 2009, who died aged 78 last year.
While she kept the name after their 2014 divorce, she did not think it was appropriate to pass it on to her daughter.

The identity of Starr’s father has not been made public. However, Brynne confirmed to the publication the man had met his daughter twice.
‘I haven’t had a good night’s sleep since Starr arrived,’ Brynne said of motherhood.
‘But I wouldn’t trade being a mum for anything – I’m the happiest I’ve ever been.
