Blair Shackle: Postpartum Anxiety and PTSD – Part 2
Take 25 minutes over lunch to feed your soul!
Listen to Part 1 of Nada and Blair’s Dare Ah New Belief conversation here.
In Part 2, Nada and Blair discuss:
- What it was like to experience a full-term pregnancy after suffering a miscarriage.
- Grieving the loss of a birth plan
- How lack of sleep and carrying the trauma of the hospital experience and previous miscarriage caused a complete breakdown
- The terror she felt when she had to leave her newborn son and family
- Moving forward with her husband and making the decision to have another child
Key takeaways:
- Our words are powerful beyond measure, and can heal or devastate
- Some seeds that get planted are just not what you want
- Being mindful of a mother and father after giving birth, because they are so open and vulnerable
- Will I be better from this experience or worse?
- The healing journey can be long….and totally worth the effort to bring about more rainbows
