    Mom & Mind
    431: Behind the Sessions: Letting go of Guilt About Not Being Present in Postpartum

    Mom & Mind

    Today's episode explores a crucial topic that warrants our attention. We are discussing the after-effects of postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and perinatal mental health conditions. The lingering sense of guilt, sadness, regret, grief, anger, and frustration comes as a result of feeling that you weren't present during the postpartum time. How much time does it take to “make up” for that time that you felt disconnected and anything but joyful about motherhood? Do you feel that you missed important milestones in your baby's life? All of these are important questions that many mothers wrestle with in a constant mental battle. Let's take a closer look. Show Highlights: Where does the unreasonable pressure come from? Are you punishing yourself? The truth: You WERE there in all the ways you could manage at the time. You do acts of love and caring, even if you don't feel like doing them. What you need now is what you needed then: compassion, support, and loving thoughts. Self-compassion brings gentleness into the picture. Healing needs to happen (and that means allowing yourself to grieve). Dr. Kat leads a healing exercise to try on your own. (Try it!) Your healing is valid and worthwhile, even if you can't see it yourself.

Over the years, Dr Wood has watched her own patients struggle to achieve wellness while lacking sufficient focus on mental health. With shortening doctor visit times, only the bare minimum can be done during a typical wellness exam, excluding the opportunity for a woman's most trusted care provider to assess her mental health – arguably the gateway to her overall health and wellness. Likewise, during postpartum visits, Dr. Wood found that there is no time to help young mothers struggling with mental health issues. Finding another mental health provider to care for a patient with perinatal mood disorders, infertility, or fetal loss is equally challenging. Following her passion and determined to make a difference, Dr. Wood obtained a certification in perinatal mood disorders, psychotherapy, and pharmacotherapy, and she started the Woman Made Well clinic with one mission – to achieve wellness through the proactive pursuit of both physical AND mental health. She is passionate about empowering women with the care and tools they need to live their best life.   SOCIAL MEDIA: Connect with HeHe on IG  Connect with HeHe on YouTube   Connect with Dr. Wood on IG    BIRTH EDUCATION: Join The Birth Lounge here for judgment-free childbirth education that prepares you for an informed birth and how to confidently navigate hospital policy to have a trauma-free labor experience!   Download The Birth Lounge App for birth & postpartum prep delivered straight to your phone!   LINKS MENTIONED: Connect with Dr. Wood here: https://www.womanmadewell.com/

    Et si on osait poser les mots sur ce qu'on vit vraiment ? Pas ce qu'on poste. Pas ce qu'on croit devoir ressentir. Mais ce qu'on traverse, au cœur du post-partum. Dans cet épisode, j'ai tendu le micro à celle qui partage ma vie, la mère de nos deux enfants, Noëlla. Ensemble, on raconte sans filtre ce que nous avons vécu depuis la naissance de Lucas, notre deuxième enfant. La joie, oui. Mais aussi la fatigue, l'épuisement, les nuits sans fin, les douleurs physiques, les doutes, les pleurs, la culpabilité, les disputes parfois.On parle d'un bébé qu'on ne peut pas poser. D'un allaitement difficile malgré toute la préparation. D'un RGO qui épuise. D'une charge mentale qui déborde. D'un couple qui cherche à tenir. D'une grande sœur à accompagner. Et d'un quotidien qui nous pousse dans nos retranchements.Noëlla partage tout ça avec précision, pudeur et honnêteté. Et moi, je dis ce que j'ai ressenti aussi : l'impuissance, la mise à distance émotionnelle pour tenir, la peur de ne pas être assez, les phobies d'impulsion, et les fusibles qu'il faut parfois installer pour ne pas exploser.On a aussi parlé des petites trouvailles qui aident : un flan de lait maternel improvisé, des virées en voiture ou à vélo pour endormir, des moments où l'un prend le relais pour que l'autre tienne debout. Ce n'est pas un récit lisse. C'est un récit de vie. Cet épisode est un partage brut, entre deux parents, deux êtres humains qui ont fait de leur mieux avec ce qu'ils avaient. Si tu es en plein dedans, ou si tu l'as été, on espère que ça te fera du bien de l'entendre. Et peut-être de t'y reconnaître, un peu.Salutations adelphes et solidaires ✊

    Send us a textEver wonder why your postpartum clients feel like they're in a fog, forgetful, or just plain different? It's not just "mom brain" as we know it. In this eye-opening episode, we're completely shifting the conventional understanding of the postpartum brain and diving deep into the profound neurological rewiring that happens after birth. Forget surface-level fixes; we're talking about real, lasting solutions for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and maternal burnout by understanding the biological brilliance behind a mother's transformation. This isn't about "fixing" women; it's about seeing their bodies and brains with the reverence they deserve, and equipping postpartum providers with the holistic care practices to truly heal their clients at the root.Check out this episode on the blog HERE. Key time stamps: 0:48: Postpartum brain is rewiring, not broken. 3:23: What happens to the brain in postpartum? Neurological transformation explained. 4:25: Increased diligence, heightened emotional sensitivity, disrupted memory & focus, decreased self-prioritization.5:30: Biologically appropriate functions without proper support lead to burnout, anxiety, rage. 6:46: The role of stress in brain rewiring – adaptive vs. chronic. Chronic stress creates maladaptive programming. 10:40: Mom brains prioritize survival and baby's needs, not broken. 11:29: Oxytocin strengthens memory of emotionally charged events. 12:24: Understanding intrusive thoughts: protection, not pathology. 15:28: How to support postpartum brain recovery: nutrition, nervous system regulation, repletion. 16:05: Why holistic approaches are crucial and why single strategies fail. 17:44: Body-based trauma release techniques like TRE therapy. 18:11: The importance of safe co-regulating relationships. 19:59: Consistent nutritional repletion is biochemical reality. 20:25: Sleep rhythm and restoration for active brain repair. 24:08: Reclaim mom brain: it's a superpower, not a problem. Postpartum rewiring makes mothers more intuitive, protective, efficient. NEXT STEPS:

    What if giving birth left you with nightmares, hypervigilance, and a constant sense of dread — and no one believed you? Worse, what if you didn't think it mattered because, after all, the baby is healthy? In this eye-opening episode, host Gabe Howard talks with ADAA member expert Dr. Lauren Sippel about a condition many have never heard of: postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Dr. Sippel explains what postpartum PTSD really looks like, why it's often misdiagnosed, and how to tell the difference between typical new parent stress and clinical trauma. Often overshadowed by postpartum depression and dismissed by loved ones and providers, postpartum PTSD is a silent struggle affecting far more people than we realize. If you or someone you love has felt lost or dismissed after childbirth, this conversation could be life-changing.

I've heard about the peaceful ones. I personally had two unmedicated ones that were not intentionally unmedicated. There was a lot of screaming. And my babies were healthy. And some things went as smoothly as expected and some things did not go as planned. And one of them was pretty scary. And thankfully I did not experience PTSD symptoms from that. Could I tell you why, Gabe? Absolutely not. And if I did, I probably couldn't tell you that either.” ~Lauren M.

    At nine weeks postpartum I thought I would share how my #postpartum journey has looked, what I learned along the way, tie in some research of course and give you tips and tricks from my personal experience. I watched so many videos on tik tok and YT before giving birth to learn about what I needed PP so I felt that an episode like this could be very helpful to anyone pregnant, planning to have children, or if you are just interested to know. From food and fitness, to hydration, mental health and recovery, we chat all things postpartum as I share my personal experience along with studies on: oats and milk production, caffeine consumption while breastfeeding and average weight loss postpartum.
