I am very excited to be partnering with perinatal psychiatrist Dr. Pooja Lakshmin to provide a free 45 minute Zoom Webinar on Mental Health in Pregnancy + Keeping your New Baby Safe in a Pandemic on June 17 at 9pm ET.
You’ve almost certainly read something from Dr. Lakshmin who has written a lot for The NY Times on motherhood including my favorite piece recently “Mothers Don’t Have to Be Martyrs”.
We know this time is overwhelming for everyone and being a new parent is overwhelming enough as it is, so we are hoping to be helpful and address questions including:
What is the latest research on how COVID may impact newborns?
What social distancing precautions should I put in place during the postpartum period?
How should I think about making decisions about child-care and help at home, as restrictions loosen in some states? What’s safe for my older children?
How do I set boundaries and have difficult conversations with family and friends?
How do I deal with my anxiety about keeping my newborn safe?
