Manzila Sharma on, ”Perinatal Mental Health”

In this episode of Bhanna Baki, we have given our platform to Manzila Sharma, who is a new mom and a teacher by profession, to talk about the importance of prenatal and postpartum mental health. Pregnancy is often a time of excitement and joy, but sometimes this period could be very challenging and stressful to some women. There is always some pressure for expecting women or new moms to swiftly transition into motherhood, feel emotionally attached to their newborns right away, or just to know how to take care of their newborns. Manzila, in this episode, shares with us why these expectations are wrong and how they can affect women before and after childbirth. She talks about postpartum depression, baby blues and her own experiences as a new mother, and the challenges that come along. We hope you enjoy this episode and can find something new to learn or to talk about from this episode.
