Here are my rapid fire responses ⤵️

1) If you’re feeling this way after 2-3 weeks postpartum, it’s not the baby blues. Now we’re assessing for postpartum depression or anxiety.

2) That’s great that you and baby are fine. You can still have symptoms related to the trauma of your birth.

🌿Trauma is still something you deserve and can to heal from. Don’t believe other people telling you to just “get over it.”

3) Your sadness has nothing to do with gratefulness. Both can exist.

👉You can have symptoms of postpartum depression AND be very grateful for your baby

4) 🚫NO. Just no.🚫 Intrusive thoughts that scare you are a symptom of anxiety, not a desire to harm your child. Moms who are freaked out about intrusive thoughts do not act on those thoughts.

5) Girl, you get to choose what is best for you and your body. Medication is an effective tool for treating symptoms of postpartum depression and anxiety.

✨You’re the one having the symptoms, so you get to make the decisions as needed to help you feel better.✨

Some moms love being pregnant, some moms don't. And that's okay! ❤️

I can literally see the relief ⤵️

So many moms come to me afraid that there is something seriously wrong with them.

But here’s the thing 👇🏻

Scary intrusive thoughts are a near universal experience by postpartum moms.

They can be super uncomfortable and for some moms, cause a great deal of distress. 😩

This is what you have to know ⤵️

If you have a thought of harm coming to your baby that scares you, that is a sign that it’s a symptom of ANXIETY, nothing more.

Nothing dark or sinister about you.

Basically your brain wants to protect your baby so badly that it thinks of terrible scenarios to keep you on high alert to keep your baby safe.

And you know what? That’s what you do. You protect your baby and make sure the thought doesn’t happen.

So good job brain! You made sure your baby was safe! But you were kind of a jerk about it. 🤬

If you have a scary intrusive thought, tell yourself this ⤵️

“That is a symptom of ANXIETY, that is not me.”

While it doesn’t make the thoughts immediately go away, it does take away some of their power. 💪🏻

I’ve worked with hundreds of moms and I can confidently say this.

🌺 You are not alone. This sh*t is hard. 🌺

Everyone has their struggles, even if they don’t show it.

So many moms I work with feel isolated in their struggle even when there are so many moms that feel similar ways.

And here’s the thing ⤵️

👉 Our society doesn’t create safe spaces for moms to say how they’re really feeling.

There’s pressure to slap on a smile and say you’re great/blessed/so happy, even if you’re drowning inside.

Now, I’m not saying being a mom isn’t wonderful in many ways.

I am saying it’s HARD.

And you are not the only one that feels that way, even if the other moms you talk to seem really put together.

Take a risk. Talk to a mom you trust about how you’re really feeling. You may be surprised that you have more in common than you think.

And finally, the hill I will always die on. ⤵️

✨You are the best mom for your baby. You are the expert on her and you are doing a GREAT job.✨
