Pregnancy and postpartum are often painted as purely joyful — but the truth is more complex. Up to 1 in 5 women experience antenatal or postnatal depression, anxiety, or emotional numbness, yet these struggles are rarely screened or discussed.

In this episode of the Feminine Systems Podcast, Dr. Dee explores the hidden landscape of maternal mental health:

1) How hormones, trauma, and stress shape mood during pregnancy
2) The difference between baby blues, postpartum depression, and psychosis
3) Simple healing rituals to support emotional resilience
4) Why social and family support can change a mother’s mental health trajectory
5) Practical ways partners can show up during this vulnerable phase.
