Two months after my son was born, I remember wondering, “Will I ever feel like ‘me’ again?”. Parenthood is so beautiful, but in that moment I bravely acknowledged some parts felt hard or overwhelming. I realized there are also questions that feel taboo to talk about. During my time as a postpartum doula and a perinatal therapist I have heard this question and many other questions parents felt nervous to ask. My hope is that providing this blog may help you feel a little less alone. To read more visit:

Postpartum rage is an intense feeling of anger that can occur after childbirth. It affects about 25% of new parents and can be triggered by hormonal changes, sleep deprivation, shifts in body image, new responsibilities, and the overwhelming demands of parenting. It may also be linked to a mood or anxiety disorders, mismatch between expectations and reality, and lack of support.

If you’re experiencing postpartum rage, know that you’re not alone, and there are ways to cope. This post offers helpful tips to manage these emotions. If you’re struggling or need extra support, reach out to Roots in Wellness – we’re here to guide you through this difficult time with care and understanding.

La colère postpartum est un sentiment intense de colère qui peut survenir après l’accouchement. Elle touche environ 25% des nouveaux parents et peut être déclenchée par des changements hormonaux, le manque de sommeil, les changements d’image corporelle, les nouvelles responsabilités et les exigences accablantes de la parentalité. Elle peut également être liée à des troubles de l’humeur ou de l’anxiété, une disparité entre les attentes et la réalité, et un manque de soutien.

Si vous éprouvez de la colère postpartum, sachez que ce n’est pas une expérience isolée, et qu’il existe des moyens de la surmonter. Ce post propose des conseils utiles pour gérer ces émotions. Si vous éprouvez des difficultés ou avez besoin de soutien supplémentaire, contactez Roots in Wellness – nous sommes là pour vous accompagner avec bienveillance et compréhension à travers cette période difficile.
