Episode 47- "What If This Was My Last Straw" Therapy Part II

http://australiacounselling.com.au Did you know at least one in seven mothers and one in ten fathers suffer with perinatal depression or anxiety and for many this can lead to family breakdown? These are some of the staggering statistics Elly Taylor has found in her perinatal research.

Elly says we laugh that babies don't come with an instruction manual and say that nothing can prepare parents for parenthood but neither of these things are entirely true and clinging to them can cost new mothers and fathers their mental health and their marriages. Our materialistic culture does a lousy job of preparing and supporting early parenthood.

Elly believes when we understand the modern day transition into parenthood, it's cultural context and what it means for couples, we can reduce the risk for parents and support the emotional wellbeing and bonding of mothers, fathers and babies. 

In this interview Elly discusses:

A summary of the research she is doing in Perinatal research
How she came to be interested in working in the perinatal field
The common challenges new parents struggle with
Some of the more serious mental health issues that parents can encounter pre and post birth
What therapists should be on the lookout for when working with new parents
 How therapists can help parents better prepare for parenthood
 What the research is telling us about the state of the mental heath of parents and young families in Australia
Specific resources for therapists that might be working with this population

92Y Parenting Center Podcast: Better Sleep For You and Your Baby! | You've Got This

A brief description of how to shush your baby, starting with a loud, high-frequency, "hissy" shush and moving to a (still loud) low-frequency, calming shush.

How to Shush Your Baby

Nothing quite brings your fertility front and center like a pregnancy. Whether a pregnancy ends in a baby or not, it causes big changes to your body. Hormonal changes, like an increase in estrogen and prolactin, can cause or are directly related to physical changes, such as breast and milk duct growth.

What do people who’ve just had a pregnancy, need to know about their birth control options afterwards?

To discuss this, we’re joined by two midwives: Imogen Ray Minton is a home birth midwife and co-founder of the Queer Feminist Midwifery Collective here in Berlin; and Yasmeen Bruckner is a certified nurse, midwife and women's nurse, health practitioner at the University of Washington Northwest Campus Midwives Clinic. For more information on today’s episode visit . And to find out how to support the work here at Clue, go to  "There is this like this thing, this idea, that everything should be back to normal by six weeks. And I really try to encourage people to think about how long it took them to grow a baby in their body and the incredible feat it is to birth a baby no matter how you birth your baby."
