In this podcast episode, I talk more about postpartum anxiety and how it affects your thoughts, emotions, body and behaviour. Around 15% of new mums experience a significant anxiety problem during pregnancy and up to the first year postnatally. So if you can relate, you’re not alone.
I delve into how anxiety is something we need to keep us safe, but how perceived threat can trigger your anxiety even in situations where there is no real threat.
The episode very briefly references intrusive thoughts – listen to my previous episode for a more in depth overview Intrusive Thoughts In Parenthood Podcast Episode
