In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Dr. Melissa Stone, PsyD about romantic relationships in the postpartum period. We start the episode by Dr. Melissa sharing how she came to specialize in perinatal mental health and why discussing romantic relationships in the postpartum period is so important. We discuss many ways romantic partnerships are changed or challenged in the postpartum period and how resentment plays a role in the strain on partners in the postpartum period. We discuss maternal gatekeeping, as well as the role people pleasing plays in romantic relationships postpartum. Additionally, we discuss the "hot" topic of sex after baby.
