*Hi guys! Liesel here. I wanted to let you know that the Mommy Labor Nurse podcast as you know it is currently getting a HUGE facelift!

In the meantime, please enjoy this re-air of a fan favorite episode!! And stay tuned to my instagram for updates on when the new and improved Mommy Labor Nurse podcast will be back with all new episodes!*

In this episode, my friend Mallory shares her experience with postpartum depression and later I do a Q&A answering your questions about it.

Here are the questions I go over in the Q&A!

1. What should I do if I need help?

2. What are some of the common treatment methods?

3. Are there certain risk factors?

4. What should I say to people if they think I’m fine, because I don’t look sick?

5. How long will it take for me to feel better?
