Today’s topic is postnatal depletion.

We are going to explore the miracle of building and birthing a baby - the resources required, the sacrifices that are made in the process and the nourishing traditions that we have lost in a modern, western society for postpartum care.

This episode covers:

  • What is Postnatal Depletion?

  • Is this a new phenomenon?

  • What are the signs, symptoms and risk factors?

And finally, a question from our audience: can I prevent postnatal depletion?
