Removing Stigma, Embracing Support: A Guide to Perinatal Mental Health

Becoming a parent is often depicted as a joyous and life-affirming event - images of love at first sight, instant bonding, practically a state of euphoria, and purpose. The reality, though, can be far more complex. For many, the perinatal period — the time during pregnancy and the first year postpartum (including infertility and fertility treatments) — can be a challenging emotional and mental landscape to navigate, often made even more challenging when it is not talked about. Even if and when love, bonding, and a sense of purpose are present, mental health during pregnancy and postpartum is too often silenced.

The Healing Power of Kindness: Why Helping Others Helps You Too

November can feel like the start of a marathon. As soon as October ends, we officially head into The Holidays, and from Thanksgiving through New Year’s, family and social interactions abound. Family traditions, seeing relatives we haven’t been with for a while, and sharing food and conversation can be lovely, fun, and nurturing. It can also be tense, challenging, even painful. We may have challenging family relationships or feel the loss of someone who’s no longer with us.
