All about Hannah Harper’s original song about postpartum depression
Hannah said on Idol, “My youngest is 1 and shortly after he was born I had postpartum depression. I was sitting on my couch wallowing. Everybody wants to touch you. I didn’t want to be touched. I was just having a pity party, praying that the Lord would calm my spirit. And my son kept coming up to me saying, ‘Mama open this. Open my cheese.’”
“And I finally opened his cheese and when I did that God had put me in that place and where I was in my house was the biggest ministry I could have, and being a mom, so I gathered myself and I got up off the couch and I quit throwing a pity party and realized that was exactly what I wanted. I kind of kicked the postpartum depression in the butt, I said, ‘I ain’t doing it.’ And I wrote this song called ‘String Cheese,’” she added.
