How Newborn Feeding Challenges Impact Me...

DR. MONA AMIN
About this episode

#PhilipsPartner The fourth trimester is hard for many reasons, and feeding difficulties can impact a parent’s mental well-being. But how so, and why do feeding difficulties play a role in our mental state?  

 

On this episode, I’ll discuss: 

  • How challenges in newborn feeding can impact maternal mental well-being.
  • Why we need to utilize our support system and #ShareTheCare postpartum.
  • How to protect our mental well-being AND focus on our postpartum feeding goals.
