Summary
On this episode: Lucy sits down with researcher and friend of the show Tova Walsh to talk about her work on dads who experience postpartum depression. Paternal mental health is a topic we don’t talk about nearly enough, so we wanted to give you some advice — and some resources to learn more and get help.
Tova wants to share the following:
- A conversation she hosted about understanding fathers’ mental health
- Help for dads via Postpartum Support International
- A training on paternal perinatal mental health, geared toward care providers
- And a piece of her research on including fathers in perinatal mental health practice.
Lucy, Zak and Elizabeth will also debrief on our week in parenting with a round of Triumphs & Fails — including ROLY-POLIES.
Listeners, we want your advice – and your questions – about how to prevent the dreaded summer backslide. You know where to find us (and if you don’t, keep reading).
