Ep. 18 - Maternal Mental Health: Postpartum w. Yve Gonzalez (PART 1)
Before giving birth, I met with a friend and specialist in the Maternal Mental Health field from my home state of New Jersey. Yve has worked her way up in the industry over the last 20 years and is very passionate about her work and helping women during the perinatal time. IMO she is the perfect person to come on Late Checkout and enlighten us all on the very deep and wide ranged topic of postpartum and what we all can do to help ourselves or someone close to prepare for it or that is going through it.
We had an excellent discussion about what her industry does to provide helpful resources and groups to postpartum mamas (for FREE!). In this Part 1 special, she introduces us to what work she's done, what PMADs are, what to expect when attending postpartum groups, how to prepare for help needed in the house after birth, boundary setting with family and friends, the role of a doula and much more. We also spoke about body image issues post birth and the irky social media comparisons that we all can get caught up in.
May is Mental Health Awareness month, so please share this with someone you know who can benefit from the information - not just mommies but people who are the village around her!
