…and a peek at the chapter overview
Learn who is most at risk for developing a Perinatal Mood Disorder and why these disorders are often underdiagnosed in new parents (plus, what you can do about that!).
Explore what feelings and emotions you can expect after birth and learn how to feel your healthiest while acknowledging your feelings, as shared by a licensed counselor and mom of two.
Discover the critical differences between the baby blues and PMADs, and the one telltale sign it’s time to reach out for professional support.
A certified therapist breaks down the types of PMADs and how they are all different (yet very similar) to each other. This chapter will help you better understand what you might be experiencing and give insight into what to look out for after birth.
In this chapter, a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant shares how sleep deprivation significantly impacts postpartum mental health and gives tips on navigating this time.
A licensed social worker shares five step-by-step prompts on asking for help and support surrounding your mental health and gives tips on approaching this conversation with your loved ones, care providers, and therapist.
We partnered with a Perinatal Mental Health Counselor and co-author to create a new and improved mental health checklist and provide you with a printable copy to take to your doctor. You’ll find a copy of the EPDS, too.
