Welcome to Episode 16 of the Australian VBAC Stories Podcast! Today, on the International Day of the Midwife (5th May), we are so excited to be sharing Kim's incredible birth stories! Kim shares her inspiring and awesome journey to a VBA3C, including 3 public hospital caesarean births and then a VBA3C with a private midwife. Kim's first pregnancy resulted in a little girl born via caesarean due to high blood pressure and breech positioning at her local, low-risk public hospital. While Kim wasn't thrilled at the prospect of birthing via caesarean she describes that she had a positive caesarean experience, but also that her partner (Nick) struggled with this birth given it was unexpected and he hadn't experienced theatre previously. Kim describes her breastfeeding journey and the sudden conception of her next two babies within a year of birth each time. Given the local public hospital didn't support VBAC she prepared herself for a repeat caesarean each time, though she did ask about VBAC not only at her local hospital, but further afield as well. A little over a year after her 3rd baby's birth, which was another caesarean, Kim found out she was pregnant again! In the interim she had spoken with a private midwife and this time she knew she was going to plan a VBAC! She contacted the private midwife, Ashlee Anslow, who had admitting rights at a hospital about 2 hours away and she prepared for her VBA3C. Kim's story is rich with information and inspiration, guiding women towards trusting their innate knowledge and intuition. It not only talks about her incredible VBA3C but also about her caesarean experiences, pelvic floor and core rehabilitation, navigating breastfeeding struggles, having small age gaps between children, relationship changes and dynamics with multiple babies and the fragmented hospital system. Kim describes navigating all of these hurdles in an empowered and conscious way, finally celebrating the triumph of birthing her baby into her arms, in the water, after having not experienced a single contraction during any birth prior. We know you'll be so inspired by Kim's powerful story and can take so much hope, information and encouragement from her sharing. Thank you, Kim!

In honour of Caesarean Awareness Month this April, we are bringing you some incredible stories from women whose VBAC journeys resulted in repeat caesarean sections. Today, on her birthing day, we are so excited to share Emma's incredible birth stories! Emma journeyed through a planned caesarean for her twin babies' births, where the presenting twin was breech, through the public hospital system. During this pregnancy, birth and postnatal journey she experienced fragmented care, a term pregnancy with twins, a planned caesarean, the special care nursery, breastfeeding difficulties and postnatal depletion. Emma went on to plan a homebirth with a private midwife, Teena Welsh, and her doula (our co-host Aimee). She describes getting to the point of being 42 weeks when all of her homebirth plans changed, and she agreed to an induction which ultimately failed and resulted in a repeat caesarean. Emma shares her breastfeeding experiences, how she avoided postnatal depletion the second time around, and what it felt like transitioning from a family of 4 to a family of 5. Emma shares her birth journeys with us complete with such beautiful insights into her decision making processes and feelings throughout the journey. She describes how different the care of her team was in each birth journey and beautifully highlights the benefits of having both private midwifery and doula support, especially in the hospital setting. We know you'll find this episode incredibly inspiring and insightful, and are sure you'll learn so much from the wisdom Emma so willingly shares.

One of the most common patterns I hear from clients coming into my office is women in their 30's+ telling me: "All my symptoms started or got significantly worse after having child # __."When they come in, they're dealing with symptoms of brain fog, weight gain, anger & irritability, low libido, weak muscles, fatigue, insomnia OR wanting to sleep all the time, acid reflux, new or increasing food sensitivities, bloating, and more.At the very minimum, these women are told by their doctors that this is a normal part of motherhood and to just suck it up. At most, a doctor will blame all of this on one or two markers in their bloodwork such as low iron or low Vit D, give them a supplement, and tell them that's the only thing they can fix.Not only is this untrue that all these symptoms must be permanent after becoming a mother, but it's bad science. Yes, it's normal for women to be depleted by pregnancy and delivery for 3-12 months after giving birth. But if your brain fog, weight gain, anger & irritability, weak muscles, fatigue, bloating, or more has not resolved in the 12 months after giving birth, it's time to look into something call chronic Postnatal Depletion.What is Postnatal Depletion, how do you know if you have it, and what can you do to get rid of it?I go over all this today and more.If you are living with chronic symptoms that diet change, supplements, exercise, and doctors can't fix - then you won't want to miss today's episode.

In this episode I chat to Kellee @littlehumanlinens about her fourth pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Kellee's first three waterbirths were really positive experiences and you can hear her discuss them in . When I first interviewed her she was deep in her third postpartum and experiencing severe postnatal depletion which affected every aspect of her life. Today she talks in detail about that time, the day she discovered she was pregnant again and the depth of her despair as she wrestled with what life would be like with four children. She chose to be proactive with her health and wellbeing by prioritising simple self-care habits every single day throughout pregnancy. She also planned a six-week postpartum and is now reaping the physical, emotional and energetic benefits. I'm counting down the weeks till my new book, The Complete Australian Guide to Pregnancy and Birth, is published. It covers everything you need as you journey through pregnancy and prepare for a positive birth experience. --> Pre-order it  now.

In this episode, Kim and I discussWhat is postnatal depletion?

In our 154th episode of Beyond the Bump, we chat with the incredible Dr Oscar Serrallach. He is a functional GP and an expert in postnatal depletion, and we chat to him all about how to better prepare for the postnatal period. Oscar talks about his struggle in finding resources and information about depletion and what women were going through! What is ‘normal' within the postpartum period? How can we distinguish ‘normal' postnatal fatigue versus postnatal depletion? Is postnatal depletion like a spectrum? If you've got postnatal depletion, are you on your way to postnatal depression and/or anxiety? Why something traumatic happing during your pregnancy could have a significant impact on a women's fourth trimester What are some things, at a societal, family, or individual level, that we can put into place to make a significant difference during the postpartum period? How can we, in our very isolated homes and fast-paced lives, introduce some of these more traditional practices in a realistic way? Is postpartum depletion worse in those women that stay at home versus those that go back to work? Does vaginal birth or having a caesarean make a difference in postpartum depletion? If we feel like we are depleted is there a test that we can do to confirm it? Postpartum hair loss!! Why does it happen? Is there anything we can do to avoid and/or manage it? And is it linked to depletion? Are there any supplements or nutrients women should take postpartum?

Today Keshia will be sharing on how important Mental Health is and how she dealt with it, after her own birth trauma.  Postnatal Problems Is what you are feeling postnatal anxiety, postnatal depression, or a combination? It is normal to experience ‘baby blues' a few days after giving birth. This increased anxiety and emotionality can last a week or two as you recover from pregnancy and birth. However, if you don't begin to feel better, or if your symptoms are particularly severe, you may need help. Postnatal anxiety New research has shown that severe anxiety is even more common in new moms than depression. You may have postnatal anxiety if you are experiencing some of these symptoms: · Feeling overwhelmed, fearful or daunted · Insomnia and/or difficulty sleeping · Uncontrollable irritation or anger · Feeling restless and/or unable to concentrate · Avoiding situations because you're worried something bad will happen Postnatal depression Postnatal depression (PND) can develop any time during the first year of Baby's life and the symptoms, if left untreated, can last a long time. PND can feel mild, or out of control. You may have PND if you are experiencing some of these symptoms: · Feeling overwhelmed, inadequate or guilty · Difficulty bonding with your baby or feeling like you are unable to look after your baby · Feeling tearful, sad, irritable or resentful · Feeling numb, disconnected, apathetic or hopeless · Lack of energy · Loss of appetite · Thinking about suicide or self-harm Postnatal Depletion A new term being talked about by both moms and health professionals is ‘postnatal depletion' – coined by Dr Oscar Serrallac, a family practitioner in Australia with a holistic approach to health. Postnatal depletion encompasses a range of symptoms – from memory disturbances to fatigue to feeling guilty or overwhelmed – which can affect moms from birth until the child is seven years old (or even longer). It is essentially the massive toll that pregnancy, birth and new motherhood can take on a woman, both physically and psychologically. Postnatal Psychosis This is the most severe of the postnatal illnesses and its duration depends on how soon the condition is diagnosed and treated appropriately. Symptoms include heightened motor activity, hallucinations, mood swings, severe depression, and mania, confusion and/or delirium. Postnatal psychosis usually requires hospitalisation and medication. Treatment Postnatal problems should not go untreated. Treatment, plus lots of love and support from your partner, family and friends, will help you recover faster, and feel physically and mentally restored. Here's how you can find help: · Contact the Postnatal Depression Support Association (www.pndsa.org.za) · Talk to a trained counsellor · Visit your doctor (if breastfeeding, you probably won't be able to use most antidepressants, but it's safe for you to use appropriate homeopathic remedies and tissue salt remedies such as Nat mur) Away with postnatal emotional problems It's normal to experience a bit of emotional upheaval when a baby is born. Most women get ‘baby blues' or ‘third day blues' a few days after giving birth and have a week or two of increased anxiety and emotionality before things return to normal. If symptoms don't clear up or seem particularly severe, new mother anxiety may have become postnatal depression (PND), or the more recently recognised condition called postnatal depletion. These can all develop any time during the first year of Baby's life and the symptoms can last a very long time if not recognised and treated. The symptoms can be mild or very severe, and there is no single trigger. Often it develops due to a combination of factors such as a traumatic birth, loneliness, stress, and hormonal factors. A woman is particularly vulnerable after giving birth and too many stress factors can lead to full-on depression. There are a number of possible triggers, including: False Expectations If you have unrealistic expectations or believe that you are totally prepared for birth and life thereafter, the reality of the humdrum of post-baby life can cause disillusionment and depression. Often women who are used to efficiently running their work and personal lives struggle with this, as they feel like a failure when these methods don't work in their new baby-orientated lifestyle. Women with low self-esteem are also prone to depression. The best approach is a change in attitude and it can help to talk things through with somebody else – especially a mom who has been through something similar. Hormones Throughout pregnancy there's lots of hormonal activity – and this all changes suddenly after birth. The ‘hormonal crisis' often causes women to feel more emotional, weepy, sentimental, irrationally unhappy, angry, disillusioned, depressed, and even suicidal or completely disinterested in Baby, their families, or their own welfare. Often, the body adapts quickly to these hormonal changes and the result is nothing more than a brief bout of the third day blues. However, these feelings get progressively stronger in some women and sometimes only develop weeks or months after the birth. The fact that it is ‘just' hormones doesn't mean that you can just ‘pull yourself together'; this is a legitimate medical condition which may require medical treatment. Incessant crying A colicky or ill baby often cries non-stop, leads to sleep deprivation, and causes plenty of anxiety for new parents – all of which can trigger depression! Sitting at home all day with an unhappy baby can trigger the blues, and moms who keep busy while dealing with whatever treatment Baby needs often cope better. Try to arrange outings with other moms and make sure that you leave a bit of ‘you time' as well! Relationship strain Having a baby isn't going to save an ailing relationship; unresolved relationship problems aren't a good base to start a new family on. Communication is vital so that both you and your partner understand what each of you is experiencing after Baby's birth. Be careful that you don't use Baby against each other, as a pawn in your arguments. View parenting as a team project, not as a competition; not only can this help combat depression, it will also form a wonderful foundation for raising a child. Tiredness Sleep deprivation and exhaustion is practically the norm for new moms, although some women react more negatively than others. Don't underestimate how much this can affect the psyche; it's the seat of depression. Sleepless nights aren't really preventable because Baby's sleep requirements can't be predicted or controlled. The only thing to do is change how infant sleep is approached – co-sleeping is a wonderful sleeping arrangement which can be very effective in treating PND. Anaemia Blood loss during and after birth can lead to anaemia – which can cause tiredness, listlessness, and depression. The body usually corrects this condition by itself, although it's a good idea to get a blood test at your six week check-up and use iron supplements if necessary. Chemical Imbalances It's possible for important vitamins and minerals to be depleted after pregnancy and the efforts of birth. If you develop PND, it's a good idea to get a blood test to check whether or not there's a chemical imbalance which needs to be corrected. Zinc is vital for a developing baby, but it also contributes to a sense of mental and physical wellbeing in the postnatal period. Calcium, magnesium, and vitamin B are all very necessary in the postnatal period too, and supplementation may be necessary.8. A Depressive Personality Women with a more sombre personality are sometimes more prone to depression. Remember that there is help for this from both the homeopathic and the orthodox fields. Treatment Never let PND go untreated; it doesn't get better on its own and can have quite devastating effects on the entire family. You can contact the Postnatal Depression Support Association, a volunteer organisation dedicated to supporting women going through this experience and helping them to find the help they need. You can also ask your doctor to refer you to a trained counsellor. The best way to deal with postnatal anxiety, depletion and depression is to understand your personal triggers, and to get lots of love, support, tenderness, and understanding from your partner, family, and close friends. It's also important to get real, practical help and to have some time off from caring for Baby each week, so that you can sleep in and feel physically and mentally restored too.   If you found this episode helpful please leave us a review or give us a rating as that helps us get the show out to more people.

Episode 93: Do you feel like you don't even have time to catch your breath? Do you feel like you're racing against an invisible stopwatch? Have you heard of Postnatal Depletion? This is where new mothers are physically and emotionally exhausted and it's becoming more and more common. In my work supporting those of you who are trying to get pregnant I'm seeing more and more Pre-natal Depletion where women are burnt out before they even begin pregnancy. If you are expecting your body to nourish and nurture a new life you need to start nurturing and nourishing yourself now. It's so easy to say I will slow down once I'm pregnant but that is saying that your baby is more important than your emotional or physical well-being. Slow down now in preparation for pregnancy In this weeks YouTube video I'll be talking about how to avoid burnout and begin to get some balance back in your life whilst trying for a baby. You can also watch this episode on the Embrace Fertility YouTube channel.

He practices functional medicine and is author of the groundbreaking book The Postnatal Depletion CureHis book was the first to research the unique biology and hormones of a woman after birth and the toll that pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding place upon her.Postnatal Depletion can be potentially devastating for our relationships and families if it is not addressed. Oscar has developed a screening and treatment protocol that addresses the requirements of fourth trimester healing, which can be applied up to a decade after childbirth.Recovery depends on holistically addressing and attending to a mother's biology, psychology and life-purpose.Oscar has also just returned from a maternal neuroscience conference in France, The Parental Brain Symposium so we hear some of those research highlights too.In this episode we chat about:Postnatal depression, how it is different to other forms of depression, as well as the spectrum of it.Your extraordinary hormones and how the placenta is creating over 200 of them.Oscar shares a fantastic board meeting analogy that I know you will just love.How modern life contributes to depletion and how 'the tired mother' has become a meme people laugh about on social media.We also discuss the partner or support person's brain and their in utero connection.And so much more!Episode Resources:Buy the Postnatal Depletion Cure published by GOOP: available at all good bookstoresJoin his retreats at: www.themothercareproject.comDr Oscar Serrallach on Facebook: @droscarserrallach Dr Oscar Serrallach on Instagram: @droscarserrallachShe Births Soul Mama Circles and matrescence program: shebirths.com/mothers-groupsGet your FREE She Births Holistic Pregnancy Guide here: shebirths.com/pg

MATRESCENCEBecoming a mother is not just about the birth of a baby. It is also about the rebirth of you. Your Matrescence. A radical identity shift that is so powerful that it can also knock us off balance if we don't understand what's happening within us. From experiencing her own transformation after 3 births, fertility challenges, an ectopic pregnancy, early onset of labour and months of bed rest to get to due date, Layla began to process it all. Here with host Sinead O'Moore Layla shares the impact of her first 2 births in Germany with incredible postpartum support followed by a third here in Ireland with little to no support led her to study what happens to us in postpartum and how we've forgotten to nurture and support women after birth through genuine rest, healing, talking, nourishing and restoring. And nuanua was born, where Layla can now be that support for women. Layla now provides therapies and guiding supports to help women prepare for postpartum, to understand whats ahead, to nurture them through this transition with the ambition to feel happy again in their own skin.

So if we accept we're not meant to do this alone, then why don't we ask for more help? If we understand, on a conscious level, that the Motherload and the Third Shift is unfair and unbalanced, then why don't we speak up more often and lean on those around us? This is something I've been contemplating a lot lately. I've needed more help in my own life over the past few months, and I've also been witnessing and observing the women around me struggle to lean on others. And what I've seen is - it's more than just "I should be able to do this myself." There's the worry of your children being seen as difficult; There's the concern that your kids are too much;There's different disciplines and approaches. In other words, the reasons we don't ask for help run deep... and if we're ever going to stop this Superwoman addiction, we're going to have to shine a light on them - which is exactly what I do in this episode.

After a NEWBORN the health of that child is paramount, however, what often goes unnoticed is the EMOTIONAL & MENTAL WELLBEING of the mother afterwards, and how many never fully recover even with their HUSBANDS, child's father, or mates by their side. In many cases concerned husbands, mates, family, or the woman herself is unaware of how to handle what is referred to as POSTNATAL DEPLETION. Special guest, MARILYN ODUENYI, Peaceful Parenting Coach, POSTPARTUM DOULA, & Nutritionist, along with special guest co-host ASHLEY JOHNSON-ALFORD, mother of two, including her recent NEWBORN, visit the show to provide BLACK MEN insight on what our BLACK WOMEN experience sometimes even years after giving birth and how we can play our role in her full recovery to health.

Tune in as Dr Lauren Tober sits down to chat with Correne Wilkie, long time manager of the iconic band The Cat Empire, and co-creator of Super Bloom Festival in Melbourne, Australia. Correne talks about the family gathering that set her on a new career path, how the #metoo movement affected her in the male dominated music industry, postnatal depletion, real equality in relationships and how she manages to do it all.

This conversation is with Dr Oscar Serrallach, GP and author of the ground-breaking book, The Postnatal Depletion Cure. In both his clinical work, and as a father to his three children, Oscar has witnessed the enormous stress of modern motherhood and the health implications experienced by mothers. He has dedicated his career to addressing what he terms ‘postnatal depletion'. In this episode we discuss what postnatal depletion is, what causes it, as well as treatment and prevention strategies – which are both physiological and social. Dr Oscar discusses neuroinflammation and challenges mainstream understandings of maternal mood disorders, relaying important findings on how postnatal depression is distinct from depression experienced by those who are not mothers. He discusses the changes that happen to a mother's brain during pregnancy and postnatally, and how our stress response system is impacted. Dr Oscar importantly frames these changes as a ‘superpower' and highlights the critical importance of mothering-work. We talk about matrescence, why motherhood continues to be devalued, and what our hopes are for the future of maternal advocacy and change.

Dr Oscar Serrallach is the Australian author of The Postnatal Depletion Cure - A revolutionary postnatal care handbook which shows mothers how to reclaim their health and energy up to ten years after giving birth. In our conversation today, we look at why mothers need more support than ever, not just in the beginning of their motherhood journeys, but throughout the years that follow, and also look at his research and insight into what happens to both the mind and body when a woman becomes a mother. As mothers, so many of us are tired. We are overwhelmed. We ignore pains and ailments in our bodies, and we often put our family’s self-care over our own. Treating our mind and bodies as if we didn’t have children or experience childbirth is to the detriment of society, and Dr Oscar knows all too well of the consequences of mothers – new or old – running on empty. Postnatal depletion can present itself outside of the 6-month mark, even 7 years after birth of a child. His holistic and medical research into the postnatal period is what the world desperately needs to hear and understand. Dr Oscar believes that “Motherhood is a learned skill” and it’s this simple reminder that one of the hardest jobs in the world doesn’t necessarily come naturally which has shifted our entire perspective on, pretty much, everything. In today’s conversation, we cover: What is postnatal depletion? What happens to our bodies after we give birth to the placenta (also known as ‘a hormone tsunami’) The importance of supporting mothers through matrescence. The average mother loses 700 hours of sleep in the first year. Key supplements recommended for mothers. Why after birth, we need to keep the mother in the limelight with the baby.

Listen closely ladies: you do not need to be within one year of being postpartum to experience postnatal depletion issues. Some of you strive to reach that one-year mark because it is thought that all postpartum symptoms will just go away. I mean that would just make our lives easier right? Postpartum health isn't that simple. I invited board-certified physician, Dr. Christine Maren, on to teach you how to thrive postpartum and beyond.

In this episode, I speak with Nic Winslade, who is known on Instagram as Virgin Mum. Nic is a mother-of-two to son Marlo and daughter Blair, and today we chat through both of her Fourth Trimester experiences, including her birth stories, postpartum, all the lessons she learned along the way, and the wisdom that comes with being a second-time mum. We cover her reflux experience with son Marlo, her thoughts about society’s sleep expectations for newborns, the transition from one-to-two, her contrasting breastfeeding journeys, and her trying physical recovery with a rectal prolapse which she recounts with the honesty and hilarity she’s loved for.Nic also talks of the miscarriage she had between her two children and how leaving the emotions of this experience undealt with affected her bonding with daughter Blair later on. It's also what she attributes to her postnatal depletion.Like Nic says throughout, when it comes to being a mum, especially with a baby, we just want to know that what we’re going through is normal and temporary, so I hope you find comfort in our conversation today if that’s what you’re seeking. Amongst the honesty, there's a lot of laughs about the realities of motherhood which many of us will be familiar with!Just a warning before we begin: today’s episode contains strong language and mentions postnatal depression and pregnancy loss so if any of these things are triggering for you, please take care while you’re listening.

If you’re a mum, fatigue, loss of libido, brain fog (mumbrain), thinning hair, sagging skin and softer nails are all things we just accept as common and normal after giving birth. However, common doesn’t necessarily mean normal and our next guest chats to us about his work in identifying a syndrome all mothers experience to some degree, called Postnatal Depletion. I first heard of Dr Oscar Serrallach when I was pregnant, he has written a book called The Postnatal Depletion Cure which I started to skim through when I was pregnant, however I didn’t really start to look at it properly until a few months postpartum. (If I could go back to when I was pregnant I would have read his book from cover to cover twice – just to make sure I didn’t miss anything!) We put so much emphasis on the birth and the baby, and like he says in the interview, birth is not the finish line. His article on Gwyneth Paltrow’s website GOOP received world wide attention and in addition to practicing integrative medicine at The Health Lodge in Byron Bay, Dr Oscar has grown a real presence of social media and is a big advocate for restoring mother-centred care in our communities.

Exercise and movement is vital for our mental health, energy levels and getting strong and fit. BUT. If you just have a cursory 6 week check by a GP (who isn't a specialist in pelvic floor health) and then throw yourself back into your beloved pre-baby workouts, you could be in for trouble. I asked Sarah Fehlberg, a personal trainer and naturopath, to tell us exactly how to get back into exercise so we end up feeling great, not even worse than when we started. And!

#135 Dr Oscar Serrallach is a Doctor of Functional Medicine with a special interest in Post-Natal Wellbeing. Prior to completing his Fellowship in General Practice and Family Medicine (Board Certification), in 2010, he was working mainly in Emergency Medicine.    His initial studies in Functional Medicine coincided with starting a family, which naturally led him to consider the science through the particular lens of pregnancy, birth and the post-natal period, observing his own partner and many mothers through his clinical work. Dr Serrallach was first to recognise something he termed Post-Natal Depletion, describing the broader clinical pattern of many women presenting with symptoms after having children. He has since dedicated his work towards researching this condition and applying the practice of Functional Medicine to help his clients with their recovery. The Post-Natal Depletion Cure is his first book. In this episode Why Dr Serrallach felt compelled to write a book on post natal depletion What is post natal depletion Why it occurs How the placenta “re-programs” the mother and why this occurs How is autoimmunity linked to post natal depletion How we can prevent post natal depletion How we can best support the mother post birth Dr Serrallach runs through his 3 step program that helps women restore their health vitality and enjoyment for life again

Tara Ruscoe, PT and Coach from Feel Good Fitness in Mandurah WA, talks with Dianne about the short and longer term effects of training and coaching, sharing some of her personal insights through her fitness journey as a mother of four. She highlights the importance of postnatal factors to consider including sleep and the energy demands of being a new mum, and how watching out for warning signs is an important aspect of pregnancy and postnatal training.

Most mothers have experienced exhaustion, pain, forgetfulness, indecision, low energy levels, moodiness, or some form of baby brain.And it's no wonder: the process of growing a baby depletes a mother's body in substantial ways - on average, a mother's brain shrinks 5% during pregnancy, and the placenta saps her of essential nutrients that she needs to be healthy and contented.But with postnatal care ending after six weeks, most women never learn how to rebuild their strength and care for their bodies after childbirth.As a result, they can suffer from the effects of depletion for many years, without knowing what's wrong or getting the support and treatments that they need.Dr Oscar Serrallach is the man behind this insight, and is changing the way we honour being a mother. By bringing in these new understandings of what really happens to a woman’s body, he’s allowing us all to breathe out … realising that there isn’t something ‘wrong’ with us. We’re just depleted.You can learn more about Dr Serrallach’s work on his website, and order a copy of his book here

In the weeks and months following childbirth you feel tired, overwhelmed, emotional. It's totally normal right? Well yes, and no.These could all be signs you're experiencing what Dr Oscar Serrallach calls 'postnatal depletion'. He says there are some simple steps we can all take to get back to full health. He takes us through factors that contribute to a more depleted state, and how to take care of yourself in those early stages.

Dr Oscar Serralach speaks about the little recognised phase of life called "Matrescence". This period is the stage of becoming a mother and like adolescence the person undergoing it cannot go back to their former life. Also like adolescence, it needs support, but as it lacks even a widely known name, few women get the support they need to take up the full opportunities this transition brings. Oscar also speaks about the syndrome of Postnatal Depletion that develops as a result of unsupported matrescence.References:www.oscarserrallach.comwww.pbbmedia.org/matrescence-support.htmlmatrescence.comOur blogpost on this episode with more references:http://www.pbbmedia.org/ne-plus-ultra/were-you-supported-during-your-matrescenceProduced and presented by Sally Cusack.Copyright PBB Media and Sally Cusack 2018www.pbbmedia.org
