Over the course of the next 10 podcast episodes we will be revisiting some of our favorite podcast episodes on newborns in honor of those that have contributed to Kim's upcoming book on newborn sleep launching March 21st. Its available for pre-order here.

In today’s episode of The Gentle Parenting Show, Kim sits down with her longtime friend and colleague, Dr. Shoshana Bennett. Dr. Shosh, a clinical psychologist, is an expert on prenatal and postpartum depression and related mood and anxiety disorders. She is the author of the best-selling book “Postpartum Depression for Dummies.” Kim and Dr. Shosh discuss the difference between baby blues and postpartum depression with things to ask yourself and symptoms to look for. They cover:

  • Differences Between Postpartum Depression and Baby Blues

  • Questions to Ask Yourself with Postpartum Depression

  • Can Fathers or Adoptive Parents Experience Postpartum Depression?

  • Shame Around Postpartum Depression and Mental Health

  • What to Do if You Have Postpartum Depression

  • Critical Components of Postpartum Care

  • Sleep and Healing and Preventing Postpartum Depression

Our favorite quotes from this episode are “(postpartum depression) is not a character weakness, this is not a flaw of some kind, and it’s not anybody’s fault. We are so quick to blame ourselves and it’s not fair.” and “taking care of yourself isn’t just a nice thing to do for your kids, it’s essential to their well-being for you to be ok. The most responsible thing you can possibly do is get help.”
