For today’s episode, Shalaka will be interviewing Dr. Eszter Szekely. We’ll be aiming to answer the question: What do we mean when we talk about prenatal stress? We discuss what are the sources of prenatal stress, what are the impacts on the child and what we can do to mitigate the risk.
In the post-interview discussion (32:34), Alyson and Shalaka discuss how prenatal stress is a normal and inevitable part of pregnancy, focusing on the things that are in our control, and some of the gaps in medical prenatal care when it comes to maternal mental health.
