Because new parenthood is not always sunshine and rainbows, and that's okay.

1 in 5 new or expecting mothers suffer from a mental health condition during or after pregnancy, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Over the past few decades, there have been significant efforts to make new parents aware of the signs and symptoms of postpartum depression, but perinatal mood disorders and conditions like postpartum OCD are still shrouded in stigma, leaving many women suffering in silence. This needs to change. In this episode of From First Period To Last Period, Elyse Shull, a licensed professional counselor certified in perinatal mental health, walks Kristyn through the signs and symptoms to look out for during the prenatal and postpartum periods — because you can’t pour from an empty cup.
