Blair Shackle: Postpartum Anxiety and PTSD – Part 1
Take 25 minutes over lunch to feed your soul!
In the first part of their conversation on Dare Ah New Belief, Nada and Blair discuss:
- Blair’s first pregnancy, and the mental, emotional, and spiritual suffering when she learned she had miscarried at 10 weeks
- Knowing early on that she didn’t want to be a mother … at least not yet
- The grief and shame and blame that she carried about the miscarriage deep within
- Therapies that helped Blair heal and continue to heal years later
- The mental agitation Blair experienced with her first full-term pregnancy
Key takeaways:
- Health problems occur when we don’t deal with our emotional pain
- Healing is a process, and when we love and nurture ourselves and our journey, we are led to heal
- One in four women will suffer a miscarriage
- The pain of losing a child in a miscarriage solidified Blair’s knowing she wanted to be a mother
- Fathers are deeply affected by the loss of a child through miscarriage
