It's an issue for so many mothers, and yet for many, it's something that's never discussed until it happens. #EndPPDStigma

Postpartum OCD is frequently misdiagnosed and misunderstood – but it is treatable https://t.co/y91gOLg5jt

Mom shaming can occur when you least expect it; even when intentions are simply to "advise", "help", "point out", or otherwise enlighten a new mother. The only opinions that should influence you will come from you, your partner, and your baby's doctor.

It's amazing the difference a "what can I do to help you" can make. #EndPPDStigma https://t.co/XYQen8RCYR

Active listening is a critical part of being supportive. Saying things like "Stop looking for attention" won't help. #TuesdayThoughts #mentalhealth @ChibirdArt

I remember watching this episode last week and while I was excited to see the issue of PPD in men being brought forward, I agree completely that their view towards this important issue felt like a ploy for laughs, furthering the stigma surrounding PPD https://t.co/uHED9PB3B6

#endPPDStigma because no one should be afraid to talk about their symptoms

All OBs, Peds, and Primary Care docs: The best thing you can do for your perinatal patients is to educate yourself regarding risk factors and symptom presentation and provide EVERY SINGLE perinatal woman with a referral to a reputable maternal mental health professional.

Just because a mom or a dad has a postpartum mood disorder it does not mean that:
1 They do not love their child
2 They have thoughts of harming their child or
3 They have attachment issues with that child. https://t.co/7lwsTRQjZ3

Did you know that postpartum women are more
likely to experience an increase in an IRRITABLE mood than an increase in
symptoms of a depressed or anxious mood? (Bowen et al., 2012). Likely due to sleep disruption.

We firmly believe that Well Child visits are the perfect opportunity to screen new mothers for perinatal mood... https://t.co/As0xXcRSkT

If there is no health without #mentalhealth, why are they funded differently? It’s time to #erasethedifference: https://t.co/gfqDGi36qC
