Ivanka Trump Discusses Her Struggles With Postpartum Depression: "It Was a Very Challenging,
Emotional Time for Me"
The 35-year-old sits down for an interview with Dr. Oz on this Thursday's episode of
The Dr. Oz Show and discusses her struggles with postpartum depression.
Trump has three children with her husband Jared Kushner and during her interview with
Dr. Oz, she reveals that with each of her three children she had "some level" of postpartum
depression.
"With each of my three children I had some level of postpartum," Trump says.
When Dr. Oz asks her to clarify what she means, Trump confirms she's talking about postpartum
"depression."
Trump continues, "It was a very challenging, emotional time for me because I felt like
I was not living up to my potential as a parent or as an entrepreneur and as an executive.
And I had had such easy pregnancies that in some way the juxtaposition hit me even harder."
When Dr. Oz asks Trump why she's willing to to talk about something as personal as postpartum
depression now, she says she didn't know that she was.
"Well I didn't know that I was," Trump laughs.
"But you asked me a question and...it's incredibly important and look I consider myself a very
hard-charging person, I am ambitious, I'm passionate, I'm driven, but this is something
that affects parents all over the country."
In another part of the interview, Dr. Oz talks to Trump about working in the White House
for her father, Donald Trump.
"There's some who created a narrative that you should be a voice of moderation," Dr.
Oz says and asks her how she responds to that idea.
"Well I think that my role, and anyone who works for the President of the United States,
their role is to inform, advise and then ultimately execute," she says.
"So I'm not the decision maker.
I have my views and I share them candidly and as a daughter I have the latitude to do
that, but I also respect the process and my father is now president and the American people
elected him based on his agenda and my job isn't to undermine that agenda, it's to embrace
the areas where there's commonality and there are so many areas."
She continues, "I'm deeply passionate about fueling the growth of women entrepreneurs,
I'm deeply passionate about supporting America working families.
So I feel privileged that he's given me the platform to push areas and push issues that
are aligned with his agenda.
Where I disagree with the agenda, I'll share it with him quietly but I don't view it as
my obligation to moderate and I don't think anyone working for a sitting president should
see themselves in that capacity."
You can watch the entire interview this Thursday, Sept. 21 on The Dr. Oz Show.

Brink of WAR: Trump's terrifying warning to world - 'I will TOTALLY DESTROY North Korea' - Duration: 2:26.
Brink of WAR: Trump's terrifying warning to world - 'I will TOTALLY DESTROY North Korea'
was issued a major warning from , whose speech was met with applause in New York this afternoon. He said if America "is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea".
The US president also warned Americas other rivals would go to hell for their actions before issuing a rallying cry for unity. Mr Trump said: We must work together against those who threaten with chaos and terror.
No-one has shown more contempt for other nations and the wellbeing of their people than the depraved regime of North Korea. They respect neither their own citizens nor the sovereign rights of countries. If the righteous men do not confront the wicked few then evil will triumph. He mockingly referred to North Korean despot Kim Jong-un as a "rocket man on a suicide mission for himself and his regime".
He said: They are responsible for the starvation of millions of North Koreans. We want harmony and friendship, not hardship and struggle.
North Korea's UN mission said their Pyongyang delegate remained in his front-row seat for Mr Trump's fiery speech. Mr Trump concluded his speech with a passionate rallying cry to the UN.
He said: We will fight together and stand together for peace, for freedom, for justice, for family, for humanity and for the almighty God who made us all.
Thank you, God bless you, God bless the nations of the world and God bless the USA. This is a developing story, more to follow.

Trump's vow to "totally destroy N. Korea" over weapons threat sends shockwaves to S. Korea - Duration: 1:35.
Some perceive Trump's verbal threat to North Korea as more colorful language.
That the U.S. is bringing its military power to bear on the regime.
There are officials in Seoul placing greater emphasis on the outspoken leader's focus on
fully implementing UN sanctions.
Connie Kim brings us the analysis.
U.S. President Trump's remark to "totally destroy North Korea" if the regime threatens
the U.S. or its allies has sent shockwaves in South Korea.
While Trump is well-known for his strong and non-conventional rhetoric,... his first address
to the UN is perceived to be extraordinary.
(Korean: ) "It wasn't expected that President Trump will
come out with great rhetoric at the United Nations.
But Trump's words reflected the strong will that the U.S. will not sit and watch North
Korea's threat.
The U.S. did not give up its diplomatic solution but Washington is increasing its leverage
on its military options."
A South Korean foreign ministry official cautioned against reading too much between the lines
of Trump's speech, and rather said the U.S. president underscored the need for the international
community to fully implement sanctions on the reclusive regime.
Experts are now speculating over North Korea's possible response to Trump's UN speech, as
the regime has a record of hitting back aggressively at Trump's words.
After the U.S. president threatened the North in early August with 'fire and fury' like
the world has never seen before,... Pyongyang dismissed such warning as a load of nonsense
and outlined plans to strike the U.S. territory of Guam in the Pacific Ocean.

CNN 10 | September 20, 2017 | Trump's first speech at the UN General Assembly | Daily Listening - Duration: 10:02.
I'm Carl Azuz for CNN 10.
And we welcome our viewers from around the world.
It caused widespread devastation on the island of Dominica, and last night, Hurricane Maria
was roaring toward the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico as a
category 5 storm.
We are closely watching this and we'll bring you and in- depth report in tomorrow's show.
Meantime, CNN.com has the latest.
Another natural disaster has struck the North American nation of Mexico.
A little over a week after a magnitude 8.1 earthquake occurred near the
country's southern coast, a magnitude 7.1 tremor hit yesterday.
This one in central Mexico and it caused some buildings to collapse in the capital
of Mexico City, about 75 miles away.
Initial reports indicated that dozens of people were killed nationwide, but we don't know
yet how many.
Information was pouring in as we produced this
show.
Schools were closed in the Mexican capital.
The airport was closed.
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto ordered the evacuation of damaged
hospitals with patients being moved to other medical facilities.
This earthquake came exactly 32 years to the day after another tremor killed about 9,500
people in and around Mexico City.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
ALLISON CHINCHAR, CNN METEOROLOGIST: The depth was about 32 miles.
That may not seem that deep to you, but that plays a very important role in
terms of the vicinity.
So, again, here is where it's located, just for some reference point, not quite, a little
bit further to the north and west
from where that 8.1 earthquake happened about a week ago.
Here is a look at the population, about 28 million people felt sometime of weak shaking,
20 million felt some type of moderate shaking and you have
about 9 million people that experience some type of strong shaking.
We talked about the depth, OK?
Thirty-two miles, which is about 51
kilometers, OK?
Up to 70 kilometers, it's still considered a shallow earthquake.
So, even though that may not seem like it would be at 32 miles, it is and this grand
scheme of earthquakes, that is still considered a shallow
earthquake.
That's important because shallow earthquakes often cause the most damage, compared to the
ones that are deeper, regardless of the
strength.
But this also was a relatively strong earthquake.
When we talk about fatalities, it's estimated to be in this orange range, where it could
be anywhere from 100 to 1,000.
All of this information, by
the way, coming from the U.S. Geological Survey, in terms of economic losses as well.
Now, frequency.
We often get about 15 earthquakes that are between seven and 7.9 every year.
So it's not uncommon to get this.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: The world was watching yesterday when U.S. President Donald Trump made his first
address to the United Nations.
Its general debate is taking
place this week at the U.N. headquarters in New York City.
President Trump has repeatedly criticized the organization for not taking enough action
to achieve its goals, which include international governments
working together to solve world problems.
In his address yesterday, the U.S. leader said America hoped the U.N. would be more
accountable and
effective in the days ahead.
And he echoed a phrase he used during his presidential inauguration speech on January
20th.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: I always put America first.
Just like you, as the leaders of your countries, will always and should
always put your countries first.
The United States will forever be a great friend to the world and especially to it allies.
But we can no longer be taken advantage of or
enter into a wide-sided deal, where the United States gets nothing in return.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
AZUZ: One such deal the president mentioned was the international nuclear agreement with
Iran, which was reached in 2015.
He also spoke out against
terrorists and the countries that support them and he took aim at North Korea and its
dictator Kim Jong-un.
President Trump controversially called him rocket man and said that if the U.S. were
forced to defend itself or its allies, it would, quote, totally
destroy North Korea.
But he added that he hoped this wouldn't be necessary and he thanked the other U.N.
members involved in imposing new economic
penalties on North Korea.
Those haven't been affected in the past, to stop the nation's weapons programs.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Breaking news right now out of North Korea.
The country has carried out another missile test.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: North Korea releasing pictures of Kim Jong-un inspecting what it claims is
a hydrogen bomb.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So, what happened in North Korea?
Why have sanctions failed so badly?
GORDON CHANG, AUTHOR, "NUCLEAR SHOWDOWN: NORTH KOREA TAKES ON THE WORLD": Sanctions, obviously,
have not worked.
You would almost have to say that
they were designed to fail, because they have been so ineffective.
REPORTER: And they've been effective for a number of reasons.
The first is the extreme and complete control that the Kim family wields over its
people.
So, as a comparison, take Iran.
It's widely accepted that the economic sanctions placed by America and other countries crippled
the
Iranian economy and there were major reasons why Iran agreed to limit its nuclear program.
The Iranian government didn't wield close to the amount
of power its people than North Korea does.
DURSUN PEKSEN, ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF POLITICAL SCIENCE, UNIVERSITY OF MEMPHIS: They still
have elections.
And also they still pay attention to
what the general public thinks.
ROGIN: The total and brutal nature of North Korea's control over the media, over its
citizens, it protects the regime from the consequences that
sanctions have on its people.
Another reason the sanctions haven't worked, Kim Jong-un has managed to protect the North
Korean elite from them.
PEKSEN: We are basically talking about the control of a small coalition of high ranking
military officials, Korean worker's party leader and top
bureaucrats.
Some strategists estimate we are talking about somewhere between 3,000 to 5,000 people.
REPORTER: By doling out money and power to that small group, Kim has kept them loyal.
In some ways, sanctions have even helped him do that.
The
poorer and more insulated North Korea is, the more its leadership depends on Kim for
things like food and housing and luxury goods.
So, what would
effective sanctions look like?
One word could be key, exports.
There's a common misconception that existing sanctions have already shut off North Korea's
economy from the rest of the world.
Not so.
They still
export billions of dollars worth of goods.
That's coal and clothing and even food being exported out of North Korea and bear in mind,
this is a
massively impoverished country with food shortages.
Those goods are being traded for cash that ends up in the hands of the Kim regime.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: With North Korea, the regime does not use export earnings for the welfare
of the people.
So, the welfare of the people, I
think, should be considered irrelevant to the sanctions issue.
And so, we should be trying to essentially, shut down North Korean trade.
REPORTER: The money that North Korea gets from its exports helps the Kim's regime
in a number of ways.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Those revenues are used for two purposes, both of which are essential
for regime maintenance.
One of them is the development of
missiles and nukes.
And the other is to keep regime elements loyal to Kim Jong-un.
REPORTER: Cutting that export money could drastically hurt Kim Jong-un's ability to
control North Korea.
The problem is that the vast majority, 75
percent of North Korea's exports are to China.
For those sanctions to have any effect, the world needs China onboard.
How that happens is another
question.

It is 3,500 years old and was the tomb of a goldsmith and his family.
A partially damaged statue was found of the goldsmith and his wife, along with funerary
masks and sarcophagi.
The tomb also appears to have been
reused with sarcophagi from later years.
This isn't the first tomb to be discovered in 2017, leaving archeologists optimistic
for further discoveries.

China WARNS Trump: Threatening North Korea will not solve the problem
The North has repeatedly defied the United Nations to conduct nuclear and missile tests, the latest being a mid-range missile fired over Japan on Friday, soon after the reclusive nations sixth and most powerful nuclear test on Sept.
Asked whether there were any military options the United States could take with that would not put Seoul at grave risk, Mattis said there were, but declined to give details.
Developments in the peninsula nuclear issue up to this point prove that, no matter whether it is military threats in words or in action, they cannot promote and advance a resolution, the foreign ministry spokesman, Lu Kang, said.
To the contrary, it just adds to tensions and makes achieving the goal of denuclearization on the peninsula appear more complicated and difficult to resolve, he added, responding to a question about Mattis comments at a regular briefing.
Seoul is within artillery range of North Korea, which is also believed to have a sizable chemical and biological arsenal beyond nuclear and conventional weapons.
Any conflict on the Korean peninsula could lead to bloodshed unseen since the 1950-53 Korean War, which took the lives of more than 50,000 Americans and millions of Koreans and ended in an armed truce, not a peace treaty.
Military options available to the United States range from non-lethal actions such as a naval blockade to enforce sanctions to waging cyber attacks and positioning new U.S. weaponry in South Korea, where the United States has 28,500 troops.
South Korea and the United States, and separately Russia together with , started military drills on Monday, in a show of force against North Korea.
The Korean peninsula issue must be resolved peacefully, Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi stressed during a meeting with his Russian counterpart at the United Nations.
Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. spoke by telephone about keeping pressure on North Korea using economic sanctions imposed through the United Nations, the White House has said.

Donald Trump threatens to 'TOTALLY DESTROY' North Korea in shock speech at UN
The US President made his presence known with a fierce 41 minute tirade as took to the podium at the General Assembly in New York.
Trump didn't mince his words as he slammed Kim Jong-uns regime as a "twisted" and "depraved" regime – once again dubbing him "Rocket Man".
He threatened the rogue nation to back down from its nuclear ambition warning the US can "totally destroy" North Korea.
Trump also referenced dead US student Otto Warmbier, who died after being detained by Kims police, the murder of Kim Jong-nam, and the state-sponsored abduction of Japanese citizens by Pyongyang.
Trump warned the world risks falling into a valley of disrepair as he dubbed the rogue regime a threat to the entire world.
However, he spoke of optimism and said the world will overcome the the perils of the present to acheive the promise of the future.
The US President called on the world to tackle the wicked few and said we must work together confront those who threaten us with terror.
Trump said major portions of the world are in conflict and some, in fact, are going to hell as he also addressed problems in Iran and Venezuela.
He added: If the righteous many do not confront the wicked few, then evil will triumph..
NORTH KOREA: Kim Jong-un watches his latest missile launch over Japan. Addressing North Korea, he said: We will have no choice than to totally destroy North Korea.
Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and his regime. Concluding, the president added: We are calling for a great reawakening of nation.
We need to defeat the enemies of humanity and unlock the potential of life itself. He finished with the statement: God bless you, God bless the nations of the world, and God bless the United states of America..
Tensions have reached new heights this year as North Koreas nuclear missile programme advances quickly – including the detonation of an H-bomb.
Trump has previously used firey rhetoric to take on Kim, warning of fire and fury and chillingly saying well see when asked if he would attack Pyongyang.
