The intense things that can happen in the course of this transition can impact:
how you see yourself,
how you see your partner
and how you parent
The better we understand what happened to us, the better we can manage all the things that follow.

Today is the second part of my conversation with Alexis about experiencing and healing from her traumatic birth. The first conversation we had was shortly after the birth and another almost a year and a half later to see how her perspective had changed.

Today we talk about :
therapy
the challenges of being a new mother
what getting fired from her job taught her and
how her experience influences how she parents

This is a weekly show that highlights real pregnancy, birth & postpartum stories.
