Description
When Danielle discovered Dr. Kat, she knew she needed to have her on to ask her about so many recent revelations she’s had about her personal experience with perinatal OCD, birth trauma, and postpartum depression. As Danielle learns more and unpacks an experience she had almost 20 years ago, she can’t help but wish she could go back and tell her younger self so many things. She can’t, but she can ask the questions for the women who may encounter (or have encountered) similar issues during their pregnancies. This conversation is one that should be listened to be everyone, regardless of gender, marital and parenting status, and whether or not people personally deal with issues with perinatal Mental Health….it absolutely should be on EVERYONE’S radar. Danielle and Dr Kat discuss:⁃What exactly does the term “perinatal mental health” encompass?⁃Are there regulations in place to ensure that OBGYNs are educated on modern discourse concerning PMH?⁃What are Dr Kat’s thoughts about waiting three months to tell people you’re pregnant?⁃What necessary questions would she tell every couple (or single human looking to get pregnant) to ask prospective OBGYN’s before choosing a physician?⁃What might be some prior warning signs that someone might encounter issues with perinatal mental health?⁃What exactly is a “birth trauma,” and how does a woman know whether or not she went through one?⁃What does Dr. Kat want every person to know about perinatal mental health and how you can help someone who might be experiencing it in some way?
