A note from our Co-Owner Cassidy 🫶🏼
I AM 1 IN 5, women who experience mental health challenges in pregnancy or postpartum.

Before Letty, I was under the impression that postpartum depression looked like not loving your baby & not wanting to hold them.

That simply wasn’t the case for me — and that lack of understanding led to me to be in denial for quite some time. 

I wanted a baby so bad. I had this expectation that having a baby was going to be the most magical experience and I’d spend those first few days & months in awe gushing over my newborn. But Letty’s birth was terrifying and after one long week in the NICU during a pandemic.. I was overwhelmed by FEAR. 

Fear of losing her.

I watched her sleep like a hawk.
I checked her temperature all day every day.
I listened to her heart.
I cried constantly.
I felt I failed her at birth. 
I had panic attacks in parking lots. 
The intrusive thoughts took over me and they felt like very real fears & worries (only now do I understand them as intrusive thoughts)

Add on sleep deprivation and living in the country in the middle of a pandemic, without ‘my village’ everyone spoke of — I felt alone. 

I believed I was inadequate. I believed I was failing as a mom & when I spoke out about my birth people would say things like —
“all that matters is you’re both fine now” Or “it was worth it though right”. (PSA.. these are not helpful statements to a traumatized new mom dealing with postpartum depression & anxiety.) 

I am grateful for the women who nudged me to seek help. To talk to my health care professionals & to go to therapy. 

Postpartum depression & anxiety can look much different than you expected and sometimes it’s hard to see in yourself.

It can show up as
🩷 Persistent sadness or anxiety
🩵 Anger
💛 Overwhelm and feeling inadequate
💜 Feeling numb
🤍 Trouble bonding with baby

There is no timeline for when these feelings hit — it doesn’t have to be immediate after birth. Sometimes they surface later on.

If you’re seeing this and you’re struggling, you don’t have to mask with a “I’m fine” — please reach out.

You are not alone. We are your village.
All of the WOMB practitioners get it. 🤍
