Gwyneth Paltrow says suffering from postpartum depression after her second child, son Moses' birth had come as a shock to her.
The 45-year-old actor said that she was over the moon when her first kid, daughter Apple was born and she did not expect her to go into a "dark place" during her second pregnancy, People magazine reported.
"I think (it) was really shocking to me because I never thought that I would be a person who got post-natal depression.
"I was so euphoric when Apple was born, and I assumed it would happen with Mosey and it just... it took a while. I really went into a dark place," Paltrow.
She was in conversation with her mother, actor Blythe Danner for the Goop podcast in an episode titled, 'Gwyneth x Blythe: On Mothers and Daughters'.
Paltrow has Apple, 14, and Moses, 12, with former husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. They separated in 2016 after 13 years of marriage.
