Pregnancy and Early Parenthood
Becoming a parent changes everything.
And that’s both beautiful and terrifying.
Pregnancy and early parenthood are supposed to be joyful times, but the reality is often much more complicated.
You’re struggling with anxiety about your baby’s health.
Overwhelmed by the physical and emotional changes of pregnancy.
Battling unexpected depression during what everyone tells you should be the “happiest time of your life.”
Even when you welcome your baby…
It’s not always bliss.
Sometimes, it comes with crushing anxiety.
Thoughts about harm coming to your child.
Or feelings like you’re failing as a parent.
Or guilt because you’re not enjoying motherhood as much as you think you should.
These feelings are more common than you think.
They don’t mean something’s wrong with you.
And they don’t make you a bad parent.
Pregnancy and postpartum mood disorders affect many parents, regardless of how much they wanted their baby or how prepared they thought they were.
Plus, cultural expectations about motherhood can make these struggles even more difficult, especially if your community emphasizes the joy and fulfillment of parenthood, even if it means overlooking very real challenges.
