IVF, Postnatal Depression and Rebuilding Myself

In this honest conversation, Neela Prabhu opens up about her real-life experience of IVF, unexplained infertility, and the emotional rollercoaster of trying to conceive. She shares what it’s really like navigating the pressure to get pregnant, how isolating fertility struggles can be, and the unexpected mental toll that can follow, even when the baby you dreamed of finally arrives.

Neela talks openly about postnatal depression, birth recovery, and how hard it is to admit you’re struggling when the world expects you to be over the moon. We chat about the silent expectations placed on mums, especially those who’ve been through IVF, and the importance of having support, not just for the baby, but for you too.

This episode is for every mum who's ever felt like she should be coping but isn’t. It’s a powerful reminder that you’re not alone, and you’re not failing. Motherhood is complex, messy, beautiful,and it’s okay to say it’s hard.
